36:13-15 In the kingdom age, God will take away Israel’s reproach when the Messiah rules the nations. Israel’s enemies had a saying: You devour people and deprive your nation of children (36:13), an insult that God said would no longer be heard against his people because there would no longer be any truth in it (36:15).

36:27 That God will put his Spirit within his people is a description of the “new cov-enant” (see Jer 31:31-34) that was inaugurated with the death of Jesus Christ and that will be applied to Israel when he returns and his people confess him.

36:31 When Israel experiences God’s grace in Christ, its people will loathe their sins and realize that God has saved them because of his grace and mercy.
