restitution

(Greek, "apokatastasis"", means "restoration", occurring here and (Acts 1:6) only.) The meaning is limited by the words: "Which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets." The prophets speak of the restoration of Israel to the land

(See "Israel,"; (Genesis 12:2); (Genesis 12:3); (Romans 11:26);

also "Palestinian Covenant," (Deuteronomy 30:1).

( See Scofield) - (Deuteronomy 30:3);

and of the restoration, the theocracy, under David's Son.

(See "Davidic Covenant," (2 Samuel 7:8).

( See Scofield) - (2 Samuel 7:16),

"Kingdom," (Genesis 1:26).

( See Scofield) - (Zechariah 12:8).

No prediction of the conversion and restoration of the wicked dead is found in the prophets, or elsewhere.
