Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Zechariah 14:20-21

Zechariah 14:20-21. In that day When the nations are converted to God, as is foretold Zechariah 14:16; shall there be upon the bells of the horses Written, as it were, on every common thing; HOLINESS UNTO THE LORD This was the inscription on the mitre of the Jewish high-priest, denoting the great holiness of his office, and how he ought to conduct himself in a holy manner in all things, especially in those relating to divine worship. Now in these days of the gospel, when the Jews shall be... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Zechariah 14:1-21

The Messiah’s kingdom (14:1-21)In the final section of his book, Zechariah outlines briefly the worldwide triumph of the Messiah. Since those for whom he writes are familiar only with the region around Palestine, he limits the geographical details to that area. Other pictures are likewise taken from the way of life familiar to the Jews.The scene opens with the enemies of God mistakenly thinking that at last they have conquered his people (Jerusalem). Confident that they have achieved victory,... read more

E.W. Bullinger's Companion Bible Notes - Zechariah 14:21

seethe = boil. Reference to Pentateuch (Leviticus 6:28 ). App-92 . Compare 1 Samuel 2:13 . 2 Chronicles 35:13 .Ezekiel 46:20 , Ezekiel 46:24 . the = a. Canaanite . This is the word which, divided into two in Zechariah 11:7 , Zechariah 11:11 , is rendered "the poor of the flock". As one word it means merchant, or trafficker; but it is also used as typical of what is unclean. Compare Zephaniah 1:11 .Matthew 21:12 . read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Zechariah 14:21

"Yea every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah shall be holy unto Jehovah of hosts; and all they that sacrifice shall come and take of them, and boil therein: and in that day there shall be no more a Canaanite in the house of Jehovah of hosts."We believe that the purpose here is to show that even those vessels (pots) once excluded from the lists of the sacred, shall in the new age be as holy as the "bowls before the altar" (Zechariah 14:20). Such a conclusion as that of Mitchell, supposing that the... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Zechariah 14:20-21

Zechariah 14:20-21. In that day, &c.— This and the following verse seem to imply the promise of universal peace and holiness; blessings often mentioned in the prophets as concomitants of the flourishing state of Christ's kingdom. The meaning of the passage therefore is, that the bells, or furniture of war, belonging to the horses, shall no more be applied to their former use; but shall be looked upon as sacred, and laid up in the armoury of the temple of the Lord, as a memorial of the... read more

Canaanite—no unclean or ungodly person (Isaiah 35:8; Isaiah 52:1; Joel 3:17). Compare as to the final state subsequent to the millennium, Revelation 21:27; Revelation 22:15.

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Zechariah 14:21

In fact, every cooking pot throughout the holy city would be set apart to honor Yahweh Almighty. People would even be able to use them to bring their sacrifices of worship to the Lord. Finally, there would be no more Canaanites in the temple of the Lord of hosts in that day. The Canaanites throughout Israel’s history represented people who were morally and spiritually unclean, reprehensible to Yahweh, and doomed to death (cf. Genesis 9:25; Isaiah 35:8; Ezekiel 43:7; Ezekiel 44:9; Revelation... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Zechariah 14:1-21

The Judgment of the Heathen. Exaltation of JerusalemThis chapter has the appearance of a late work. It has all the general characteristics of the style of literature known to students in the book of Enoch, and popular in the Jewish church about the beginning of the Christian era. The terrible punishment of the heathen (Zechariah 14:12), and the ceremonial purity of Jerusalem (Zechariah 14:20-21), are typical of the narrower phases of late Judaism.1, 2. Jerusalem again assaulted and taken.3-7.... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Zechariah 14:19-21

(19-21) We cannot see, as many commentators affirm, that these concluding verses clearly indicate a passing away of everything that is distinctly Levitical. They only state that in that day there will be a general elevation of everything in sanctity. Even “the bells upon the horses” will, like the plate of gold on the mitre of the high priest, have inscribed on them “HOLINESS TO THE LORD” (Exodus 28:36, &c.). The pots of the sanctuary in which the “peace offerings” were cooked will be... read more
