The Pulpit Commentary - Zechariah 12:10-14

Penitential sorrow. "And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn," etc. To whatever particular event this passage refers, the subject is obvious and most important, viz. that of penitential sorrow. And five things... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Zechariah 12:11

As if the above comparisons were not strong enough, the prophet presents a new one, referring to an historical event, which occasioned a universal mourning in Jerusalem. As the mourning of ( at ) Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon. This is generally supposed to refer to the death of King Josiah of a wound received at Megiddo, in the battle with Pharaoh-Necho (B.C. 60) ),and to the national lamentation made for him and long observed on the anniversary of the calamity (see 2 Kings... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Zechariah 12:11-14

The great mourning. The scene depicted has reference first of all to the Jews. Already partially fulfilled. But the principles involved are of universal application. Take it to illustrate true repentance. I. GOD FOR ITS CAUSE . Not man, but God. The Father of our spirits acting on our spirit. "The spirit of grace." II. SINNERS OF MANKIND FOR ITS SUBJECTS . Not angels. We read of their fail, but never of their rising again. For them there seems no place for... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Zechariah 12:10

And I will pour - As He promised by Joel, “I will pour out My Spirit upon all flesh” (Joel 2:28. See vol. i. pp. 193, 194), largely, abundantly, “upon the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem,” all, highest and lowest, from first to last, the “Spirit of grace and supplication,” that is, the “Holy Spirit” which conveyeth “grace,” as “the Spirit of wisdom and understanding” Isaiah 11:2 is “the Spirit” infusing “wisdom and understanding,” and the “Spirit of counsel and might” is that... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Zechariah 12:11

As the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon - This was the greatest sorrow, which had fallen on Judah. Josiah was the last hope of its declining kingdom. His sons probably showed already their unlikeness to their father, whereby they precipitated their country’s fall. in Josiah’s death the last gleam of the sunset of Judah faded into night. Of him it is recorded, that “his pious acts, according to what was written in the law of the Lord,” were written in his country’s history 2... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Zechariah 12:10

Zechariah 12:10. And I will pour, &c. God’s signal interposition in behalf of Judah and Jerusalem, after their future restoration, having been foretold, the prophet proceeds to foretel their conversion to Christianity. But though the prophet speaks of this after he has foretold their restoration, it does not follow that it shall take place after that event. It is certainly much more probable that they will first be brought to repentance for the sin of rejecting and crucifying their... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Zechariah 12:11-14

Zechariah 12:11-14. In that day When the Jews shall mourn for their sins, and for that great sin, the crucifying the Lord of glory; there shall be a great mourning in Jerusalem A mourning expressed by the greatest the Jews ever experienced, the mourning for Josiah slain in Hadadrimmon, a town in the valley of Megiddon. There the lamentations for that good prince began, and were continued for many days from thence to Jerusalem, whither his body was carried to be interred in the sepulchre... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Zechariah 12:1-14

Victory, but with mourning (12:1-13:1)On occasions God used Gentile nations to punish his people Israel, but if his desire was to fight for Israel, no enemy attack could be successful. On the occasion that Zechariah speaks of in Chapter 12, God strengthens his people to overthrow the armies that besiege Jerusalem (12:1-3). The charging horses of the enemy are thrown into confusion as God comes to the help of his people. The Jewish leaders acknowledge that, above all, God is the cause of... read more
