“In that day they shall come even from Assyria to thee, and to the fortified cities: and from the fortified cities even to the river, and from sea to sea, and from mountain to mountain.”
On this verse:
“Fortified. Hebrew also, “Egypt, and from Egypt to the river Euphrates,” &c. The Jews shall occupy their ancient limits, Amos viii. 12. (Calmet) — The fenced cities may be Pelusium, Gaza, Tyre, &c. From all parts the captives shall return. (Haydock) — They were very numerous under the Machabees, and in the time of Christ. (Calmet)”
