God's Unbreakable Promise

Commentators unanimously affirm this verse as a core promise of God's faithfulness. He will not permanently reject His people because He has chosen them as His special "inheritance." Scholars like Calvin and Gill explain that this security is not based on our performance but on God's sovereign choice and covenant love, providing what Calvin calls a "sanctuary of refuge" for the believer's soul.
