Not all *Israelites were bad. A small number continued to be loyal to the *Lord. He will give them a task that, as *Jews, they never expected. They will go to *Gentiles on the *Lord’s behalf and tell them about his greatness in *glory and actions. God will include each person who believes their message as a member of his family (see John 1:12). God will even appoint some of them to be priests and *Levites in his *Temple in New *Jerusalem (see verse 21).

• The countries that the *Lord mentions are examples. There is no limit. The *Lord’s loyal people are to take his message to all the nations in the world (see Matthew 28:19-20).
