If you do a search, of GOD's name on the mountains of ISRAEL, you will find, North of Jerusalem, The name of GOD written on the mountains. It can also be seen with google earth.

It can also mean, if you keep my commandments and do them although you were cast out (done evil)he will bring you back to a special place God has choosen. The question is, where is that place God has choosen and placed his name there? Is it in heaven or some place on Earth.If they were cast out to the uttermost parts of heaven are he speaking of spiritual beings?

Though you were cast out unto the uttermost part of heaven I will bring you back if you keep my commandments seems to me God will bring you back no matter who you are saint or sinner as long as you obey him. No matter how evil you have been if you are willing to change God will bring you back.
