Jerusalem was the capital of Judah, and Zion originally referred to its fortified hill but came to signify the city, especially as God’s covenant dwelling place. In this passage, their corruption and coming judgment expose Judah’s covenant unfaithfulness, yet Zion is also promised future redemption through justice and righteousness.
