Ezekiel 6:8

Yet will I leave a remnant
Not in Judea, but in Babylon, and in the countries where they should be dispersed, as follows: that ye may have [some] that shall escape the sword among the nations;
which was threatened to be drawn, and sent after them, ( Ezekiel 5:2 Ezekiel 5:12 ) ; but all should not perish by if; some should escape; for this was not the time to make a full end of them: when ye shall be scattered through the countries;
that is, of Egypt, Ammon, Moab, and Assyria; for this respects their dispersion at the time of the Babylonish captivity, and not their present dispersion.
