The Pulpit Commentary - Zechariah 10:5-12

Redemption. I. CONFLICT RESULTING IN VICTORY . II. VICTORY RESULTING IN UNION . This does not always happen. There have been wars that have bred more wars, and victories that have left strong hates and bitter memories prolonged for generations. Besides, union may be based on defeat in the interest of the conqueror and not of the conquered; more formal than real, more a thing of covenants and legal fictions than the free choice of the people. But here it is real and... read more

Victory, unification, and blessedness for the good. "And they shall be as mighty men," etc. This paragraph is a continuation of the preceding portions of the chapter. The various statements bring under our notice subjects which, if we give them a spiritual application, are of great and permanent interest, viz. the subjects of victory, unification, and blessedness. I. VICTORY . "And they shall be as mighty men, which tread down their enemies in the mire of the streets in the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Zechariah 10:6-12

The restoration of Israel. "And I will strengthen the house of Judah," etc. The separate mention in this passage ( Zechariah 10:6 , Zechariah 10:7 ) of Judah, Joseph, and Ephraim, taken together with that of Gilead, Lebanon, Egypt, and Assyria, in Zechariah 10:10 , Zechariah 10:11 , seems an indication that we now have to do especially with Israel "after the flesh." The previous verses spoke of "the times of the Gentiles," and of the great spiritual conquests to be inaugurated... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Zechariah 10:9

I will sow them among the people ( peoples ). The "sowing" here does not mean scattering, but increase, and this was to go on while they were dispersed among the nations. The word is used in the same sense in Hosea 2:23 ; Jeremiah 31:27 . This continued dispersion was a part of their discipline, a test of their loyalty to God. They shall remember me. In the countries where they are living they shall worship the Lord and observe his Law, and be a witness for him among the heathen. ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Zechariah 10:9

The hand of God in Jewish history. I. IN THEIR LONG DESCENT . Origin of nations is generally obscure. As difficult to find as the source of the Nile. The Jews are like their own Jordan. They are the only people that can trace their descent. "Children of Abraham." Two friends were visiting the museum at Berlin. One said how strange it was to look at the intellectual features of Julius Caesar, and to think of his triumphal march northward when the Britons were but roving barbarians.... read more

Egypt … Assyria. It is certain that there was a large body of Jews in Egypt at this time ( Jeremiah 43:6 , Jeremiah 43:7 ); and to Assyria the ten tribes, who are here specially mentioned under the name Ephraim, had been deported. Besides this, Assyria is often used loosely for Western Asia or Babylonia, of which, after its submission, it formed a most important feature (see 2 Kings 23:29 ; Ezra 6:22 ; and in the Apocrypha, 1 Esdr. 7:15; Judith 1:7; 2:1). In the 'Oracula Sibyllina,'... read more

The great exodus. From Egypt—the type (cf. Isaiah 11:11-16 ). I. THE GATHERING . So now under the gospel. From far and near they come. At the call of Jesus they gather under the banner of the cross. II. THE PASSAGE . ( Zechariah 10:11 .) Like children of Israel—pilgrims in the wilderness Manifold trials. Educated by adversity and prosperity. Course ever onward, under the hand and guidance of God. III. THE SETTLEMENT . Canaan. Future glory of the Church—in... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Zechariah 10:11

He shall pass through the sea with affliction. In bringing his people back the Lord is ready to repeat the miracles of the Exodus. This is the general meaning of the passage; but the details present difficulties. For "he shall pass" the LXX . gives, "they shall pass through." But the reference is plainly to Jehovah, as the following clause shows. The next two words are in apposition, "the sea," "affliction." Revised Version, "the sea of affliction;" Septuagint, ἐν θαλάσσῃ στενῇ ,... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Zechariah 10:9

And I will sow them among the nations - Such had been the prophecy of Hosea; “I will sow her unto Me in the earth,” as the prelude of spiritual mercies, “and I will have mercy on her that had not obtained mercy, and I will say to not-my-people, Thou art My people, and they shall say, my God” . Hosea’s saying, “I will sow her in the earth” that is, the whole earth and that “to Me,” corresponds to, and explains Zechariah’s brief saying, “I will sow them among the nations.” The sowing, which was... read more
