Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Zechariah 12:1-8

1-8 Here is a Divine prediction, which will be a heavy burden to all the enemies of the church. But it is for Israel; for their comfort and benefit. It is promised that God will make foolish the counsels, and weaken the courage of the enemies of the church. The exact meaning is not clear; but God often begins by calling the poor and despised; and in that day even the feeblest will resemble David, and be as eminent in courage and every thing good. Desirable indeed is it that the examples and... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Zechariah 12:1-99

Zech 12 HAVING THUS plainly predicted the rejection of the true Messiah and Shepherd, and the consequent raising up, in God's governmental wrath, of the antichrist the worthless shepherd the following series of predictions concerning the Jews and Jerusalem, are presented as a 'burden' in the first verse of chapter 12. And indeed a burden must rest upon the spirit of the reader as we begin that chapter. The way Jehovah presents Himself is very remarkable. The heavens, the earth, and man... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Zechariah 12:1-9

Jehovah's Solicitude for Israel v. 1. The burden of the word of the Lord for Israel, His almighty, creative power being in evidence at this point, saith the Lord, which stretcheth forth the heavens, a favorite picture to show the unlimited power of Jehovah, Isaiah 42, 5; Isaiah 44:24, and layeth the foundation of the earth, which, if it were not upheld by His power, would wander from its orbit and fall into ruins, and formeth the spirit of man within him, controlling the thoughts and... read more

B. THE SECOND BURDENZechariah 12-14.The fresh title here prefixed sufficiently indicates that a new pericope begins with Zechariah 12:0. Its leading themes are the victory of God’s kingdom over the heathen world (Zechariah 12:1-9), the repentance and conversion of the children of the kingdom (Zechariah 12:10; Zechariah 13:1), their purification from all ungodliness (Zechariah 13:2-6), a severe sitting of the flock consequent upon the smiting of the shepherd (Zechariah 13:7-9), and the final... read more

Jerusalem’s Day of Mourning Zechariah 12:1-14 This vision refers to a time yet future, when the Jews shall have returned to their own land, but still in unbelief; and will be assailed by their foes, though in vain, Zechariah 12:2-3 ; Zechariah 12:6 . The Lord will defend them, Zechariah 12:7-8 . Then the nation will mourn. Their repentance will be universal , from the highest to the lowest; lonely , and on account of the sufferings they inflicted on Jesus . The Agent of this mourning will... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Zechariah 12:1-14

The second message has to do with things wholly future. The King spoke of in the previous message, whose rejection was there foretold, is now seen coming into His kingdom. This the prophet described in two movements, which are complementary. In the first he looked at the opposing nations as they will be dealt with in judgment, and at the Israel of God, as she will be restored through the acknowledgment of her true, though rejected, King, and by her own spiritual cleansing. In the second... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Zechariah 12:1

The Burden Of The Word Of YHWH (Zechariah 12:1 a). Zechariah 12:1 ‘The burden of the word of YHWH concerning Israel.’ Compare for this idea Zechariah 9:1; Malachi 1:1. It is interesting that the proclamation of what YHWH will do is described as ‘concerning Israel ’. Yet the detail following is concerning Judah and Jerusalem. Here ‘Israel’ is thus used to indicate the whole nation. The divisions (Zechariah 11:14) have been removed. Clearly God is ‘about to act’. (To Zechariah the words... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Zechariah 12:1-9

The Initial Future Of Jerusalem (Zechariah 12:1-9 ) Zechariah 12:1 ‘Thus says YHWH, who stretches out the heavens and lays the foundation of the earth, and forms the spirit of man within him.’ These words stress the greatness and wonder of what is to happen. It is the great Creator Who is about to act. They remind us of Isaiah 42:5. There YHWH God ‘has created the heavens and stretched them forth, has spread abroad the earth’ and ‘gives breath to the people on it and spirit to those who walk... read more

The Future of the House of David and the Dwellers in Jerusalem, the Servant Pierced, the Spirit Poured Out, The Superseding of Prophecy, the Fires of Refinement (Zechariah 12:1 to Zechariah 13:9 ). Zechariah’s experiences as previously described have brought home to him that the present time is not going to produce the hoped for golden age of God’s rule. The dream of the eight visions (Zechariah 1:7 to Zechariah 6:15) which had promised so much of a purified Israel over whom would rule the... read more
