Chapters 30 and 31 contain a song of restoration. [[Jeremiah]]'s dark warnings of [[judgment]] were relieved by a prophecy of the glorious future of the nation. This great regathering will be preceded by the Great Tribulation, which is often called the Time of [[Jacob]]'s Trouble.
The return of Christ as King will establish the Kingdom after the sinful people have been purged. They will be restored as the [[Lord]]'s people. The new covenant and the everlasting nation is shown in chapter 31:27-40. This restoration of the [[Lord]]'s blessings is based upon the new covenant (verses 31-34). The old covenant was the law covenant, grounded in legal observance. The new covenant (Hebrews 8:8-12) will be entirely on the basis of [[grace]] and the sacrificed blood of Christ, which will be the foundation of [[Israel]]'s future inward regeneration and restoration to [[God]]'s favor.
