Present temporal blessing God's gift out of Zion
A numerous progeny are distinctly God's gift: happy the man that
has his quiver full of them (Psalm 128). The blessings spoken of are
declared to be the portion of whoever fears Jehovah. It is present
temporal blessing — blessings out of Zion; and, the desire of the
godly's heart, Jerusalem in prosperity all their days. Although the
direct object be the remnant, the godly Gentile, so fearing Jehovah,
owning Israel's God, would, as a principle, enjoy the blessing, and
rejoice with His people.
