- Heb. escaping of the house of Judah that remaineth, "Exceptª the LORDª of hostsª had leftª° unto us a very smallª remnant,ª we should have beenª° as Sodom,ª [and] we should have been likeª° unto Gomorrah.ª" {Isa 1:9} + "But yet¹ in it [shall be] a tenth,ª and [it] shall return,ª° and shall be¹ eaten:ª° as a teil tree,ª and as an oak,ª whose¹ substanceª [is] in them, when they castª [their leaves: so] the holyª seedª [shall be] the substanceª thereof." {Isa 6:13} + "And it shall come to pass¹ in that¹ day,ª [that] the remnantª of Israel,ª and such as are escapedª of the houseª of Jacob,ª shall no¹ more¹ againª° stayª° upon¹ him that smoteª° them; but shall stayª° upon¹ the LORD,ª the Holy Oneª of Israel,ª in truth.ª ... For¹ though¹ thy peopleª Israelª be¹ as the sandª of the sea,ª [yet] a remnantª of them shall return:ª° the consumptionª decreedª° shall overflowª° with righteousness.ª" {Isa 10:20-22} + "Yet a smallª numberª that escapeª the swordª shall return¹ out²° of¹ the landª of Egyptª into the landª of Judah,ª and all¹ the remnantª of Judah,ª that are goneª° into the landª of Egyptª to sojournª° there,¹ shall knowª° whose¹ wordsª shall stand,ª° mine,¹ or theirs.¹" {Jer 44:28}
