Contextual Overview

18 Yes, I turned away; but later I repented. When I had been made to understand, I struck my thigh in shame and remorse, bearing the weight of the disgrace acquired when I was young.' 19 "Isn't Efrayim my very dear son, a child who delights me so? I speak about him all the time, I can't help but recall him to mind. In sum, I deeply yearn for him; I will surely show him favor," says Adonai . 20 Set up road signs, erect guideposts, pay attention to the highway, the path on which you traveled. Come back, virgin Isra'el, come back to these cities of yours! 21 How long will you hesitate, you unruly daughter? For Adonai has created something new on earth: a woman with the strengths of a man. 22 Here is what Adonai -Tzva'ot, the God of Isra'el, says: "This expression will be used again in the land of Y'hudah and its cities after I have returned their exiles: ‘May Adonai bless you, home of justice, holy mountain!' 23 In it will live together Y'hudah and all its cities, the farmer and those who lead the flocks. 24 For I have satisfied the weary and filled the needs of all in distress." 25 At this point I woke up and looked around, but I had enjoyed my sleep. 26 "Here, the days are coming," says Adonai , when I will sow the house of Isra'el and the house of Y'hudah with the seed of humans and the seed of animals.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And there shall dwell in Judah itself, and in all the cities thereof together,.... In peace and unity, in great concord and harmony:

husbandmen, and those [that] go forth with flocks; husbandmen and shepherds; meaning such not merely in a temporal sense, but in a spiritual one; ministers of the Gospel, labourers with God, and under him, in the husbandry of his church; pastors after his own heart, to feed his people, his flocks, his sheep and lambs, with knowledge and understanding; who shall agree in their ministry, teaching the same doctrines, and administering the same ordinances, according to the rule of the word.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Go forth - “Go about.” Judah shall have its settled population and fixed abodes; and shepherds shall move about with their flocks, wherever pasture is to be found.
