This may sound strange but this passage suggests that the Lord Yahweh is an Egyptian who created the Assyrian nation and inherited the people of Israel.This is not the regular understanding of this passage but that could be it 's real meaning.

HE God made Israel HIS inherited people, Assyria a people who HE formed to carry out his work from time to time throughout human history and Egypt, the entire continent of Africa, as it is called today, is comprised of people who HE God recognized as HIS.

This is a miracle...bringing ancient peoples together. Only a God of love could have declared this from the beginning. It is my personal belief that this is only a day of salvation and that God the Father will as he said save the whole house of Israel in the Ezekiel 37, then others in HIS time.
