Exegesis

The construct al-beth Yaʿaqov {עַל־בֵּ֥ית יַעֲקֹב | ʿal-bêṯ Yaʿă-qōv} ‘on the house of Jacob’ underscores corporate unity. The translation shifts from Hebrew VSO order to English SVO while preserving the sequence of divine actions.

In contextIsaiah 14:1

For the LORD will show mercy to Jacob; He will choose Israel again and bring them back to their own land. The sojourner will attach himself to them, and they will be joined to the house of Jacob.
