The subjects contained in the second part are, the sin of the daughter of Zion against the heavenly Solomon and the judgment; then, repentance and reunion, which will be accomplished by the co-operation of the daughters of Jerusalem, i.e., of the very heathen nations who had formerly received salvation through them; the complete re-establishment of the old relation of love, in consequence of which the daughter of Zion again occupies the centre of the kingdom of God; and the indissoluble nature of this covenant of love now anew entered into, in contrast with the instability of the former.

Ernst Wilhelm Hengstenberg was a 19th-century German Lutheran churchman and neo-Lutheran theologian. His 'Christology of the Old Testament' is a classic on the subject of Messianic prophecies.
