Sforno on Genesis
לאחוזת עולם, "I will be your G'd in order that you may carry out My will, and He gave them the land presently belonging to other nations in order that they keep His statutes." (Psalms 105, 44-45) When they do this they will achieve eternal existence individually, not merely as a species.

Siftei Chakhamim
But, one who resides outside Eretz Yisrael is like someone who has no God. R. Noson writes: This is because Eretz Yisrael is Hashem’s inheritance. He took it as His portion, as it says in a number of verses; the other lands were apportioned to the archangels. Thus, whoever resides in other lands is considered as though he has removed himself from Hashem’s domain, so to speak. And these are the words of Gur Aryeh.

Radak on Genesis
לאחוזת עולם, even though the Jewish people would be exiled from that country for a period of time, it would remain their eternal heritage. They would return to that land and G'd would be their G'd.
