Well, I am not a Hebrew scholar, this I will admit. Nevertheless, I DO understand the correct interpretation for "SECOND TIME".
And certainly within the context of this chapter i.e. "IN THAT DAY".
Isa 11:11
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time H8145 to recover the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea.
Please render your interpretation in context. By all means have @Moses_Young @Yahshua chime in if you need back-up. They trumpet themselves as experts in all things Hebrew. Lets hear it.

You seem to have got very excited with your post, I like it, helps us all learn! apologies I didn’t have time to respond earlier.
The Israelites underwent 3 historical captivity's or exiles
"The Egyptian Captivity"
"The Assyrian Captivity"
"The Babylonian Captivity"
Isaiah lived during the late eighth and early seventh centuries BCE - "book of Isaiah" was written while many of the Israelites were undergoing the "Assyrian Captivity" (began 740 B.C.E.).
implying - the Israelites undergoing the "Assyrian Captivity" would also be rescued and returned by "God.
The author of the "book of Isaiah" was writing for the audience of its time why he used names like Assyria, Cush, Elam, Hamath, etc.; the author was NOT predicting or "prophesying" something FAR OFF in the future.
It says;
from Assyria, from Lower Egypt, from Upper Egypt, from Cush, from Elam, from Babylonia, from Hamath and from the islands of the sea.
[Most of these places do not exist today or in 1948!]
Again - They will lay hands on Edom and Moab, and the Ammonites will be subject to them.
11:16 There will be a highway for the remnant of his people that is left from Assyria,
Further proof:
Isaiah 10:
5 “Woe to the Assyrian, the rod of my anger,…………….
12 When the Lord has finished all his work against Mount Zion and Jerusalem, he will say, “I will punish the king of Assyria for the willful pride of his heart and the haughty look in his eyes.
[How can God punish a king that no longer exists?]
25 Very soon my anger against you will end and my wrath will be directed to their destruction.”
What’s ‘very soon’ - 2700 years later?
"root of Jesse" – who was this and when?
[Israelites from Captivity will be followed by a time of absolute, complete, and wondrous PEACE]
Isaiah 11:6-9 – ‘The wolf will live with the lamb,……………..’
Once again there is so much more that can be written, but one can clearly adduce;
- It’s written for that time regarding the 10 tribes of the Israelites and Assyria.
- It cannot relate to the Zionist state at present – since 1948 – no peace and numerous wars ever since, and ongoing
- Arguably a failed prediction
- Related to the Messiah 2000 years ago
No matter what way you look at this, it has no relevance to the return of the Jews to the Zionist state.
I note you still havent responded to my post #2478 – I presume you have accepted that it doesn’t mean ‘forever’!
