Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Zechariah 11:9

And I said, I will not feed you - God, at last, leaves the rebellious soul or people to itself, as He says by Moses, “Then My anger shall be kindled against them in that day, and I will forsake them, and will hide My Face from them, and they shall be devoured, and many evils and troubles shall find them” Deuteronomy 31:17 : and our Lord tells the captious Jews; “I go My way, and ye shall seek Me and shall die in your sins” John 8:21.That which dieth, let it die - Zechariah seems to condense,... read more

Zechariah 11:9. Then said I, will not feed you I will no longer exercise a tender paternal care over you; that that dieth, let it die Or rather, the dying let it die; that which has a deadly disease, let it perish by that disease. Or, that which is ready to die, and will not be cured, but hath rejected the shepherd’s love and skill, let it die. Thus Jesus said, If ye believe not, ye shall die in your sins. For this seems to be spoken of the miseries to which the Jewish people were... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Zechariah 11:4-17

Two short plays about leadership (11:4-17)After announcing God’s judgment on Israel’s bad leaders (see 11:1-3), Zechariah demonstrates that judgment in two short plays. In these plays he acts the part of a shepherd, representing the leaders of God’s people.In the first play God told Zechariah to act the part of a good shepherd. Zechariah was to look after a people oppressed and exploited by bad shepherds, whose sole aim was to enrich themselves. They cared nothing for the flock. God showed... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Zechariah 11:9

"Then said I, I will not feed you: that which dieth, let it die; and that which is to be cut off, let it be cut off; and let them that are left eat every one the flesh of another."Here is detailed the attitude that Mitchell and other critics consider to be impossible in God; but when all else fails, God throughout human history has destroyed the incorrigibly wicked. The first great example of it was the deluge that swept over the ancient world. The whole theology of judicial hardening is little... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Zechariah 11:9-10

Zechariah 11:9-10. Then said I, &c.— These are the words of the Messiah to the priests of his time, whom he quickly forsook, and broke his staff of loveliness or delight, being no longer inclined to spare them, nor to restrain the people from oppressing the Jewish nation, as he had before restrained them by that covenant which he had made with the neighbouring nations. That decree of God, by which he had hindered the nations from oppressing and destroying the little commonwealth of the... read more

9. Then said I—at last when all means of saving the nation had been used in vain ( :-). I will not—that is, no more feed you. The last rejection of the Jews is foretold, of which the former under Nebuchadnezzar, similarly described, was the type (Jeremiah 15:1-3; Jeremiah 34:17; Jeremiah 43:11; Ezekiel 6:12). Perish those who are doomed to perish, since they reject Him who would have saved them! Let them rush on to their own ruin, since they will have it so. eat . . . flesh of another—Let them... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Zechariah 11:4-14

The fate of the Good Shepherd 11:4-14The reason for the devastation of the people and the land just described now becomes apparent. It is the people’s rejection of the messianic Shepherd-King (cf. Isaiah 42; Isaiah 49; Isaiah 50; Isaiah 53). The Lord would graciously give His people another good leader (Zechariah 11:4-6), but they would reject the good shepherd that He would provide for them (Zechariah 11:7-14). read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Zechariah 11:9

Zechariah, as God’s representative, turned "them" over to their fate though that meant that some of them would die, suffer annihilation, and devour one another. The Jews did eat one another during the siege of Jerusalem in the first century A.D. [Note: Josephus, The Wars of the Jews, 6:3:3-4.] And they will evidently do so again during the Tribulation."By withholding his leadership the shepherd abandoned the people to the consequences of their rejection of him: death, and mutual destruction. He... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Zechariah 11:1-17

The Parable of the ShepherdsThe perplexing nature of the prophecies in this chapter renders exposition difficult, especially as we cannot be sure of the circumstances. Apparently, however, the passage deals with misrule in Jerusalem, either of worthless high priests, or of cruel foreign rulers, or of both, who are spoken of as shepherds: see Intro.1-3. Another storm of war bursts apparently over northern Israel. 4-14. The people reject their good ruler, and the prophet acts the part of a good... read more
