Verse 19
Yet the Lord would not destroy Judah for David his servant's sake ,.... Not for his merits, but for the mercy he assured him of:
as he promised him to give to him always a light, and to his children ; or a kingdom, as the Targum; therefore he would not utterly destroy the tribe, nor suffer the sceptre or government to depart from it till the Messiah came, see Psalm 132:11 .
