ゼカリヤ書 3:10 JCB

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Zechariah 3:10

(10) The wording of this verse is a reminiscence of 1 Kings 4:25, Micah 4:4, &c. It is an announcement of the approaching fulfilment of the promise of Jeremiah 33:16 : “In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell safely: and this is the name wherewith she (Jerusalem) shall be called, The Lord our righteousness.” (Comp. “Jehovah, my standard,” as the name of an altar, in Exodus 17:15.) Such prophecies were partially fulfilled in the restoration of the Jews after the... read more

Purification (An Old Testament Vision) Zechariah 3:1-7 I. Cleansed. Joshua was clothed with filthy garments (v. 3). What an anomaly is here; a priest clothed with filthy garments; a believer indulging in known sin, is this possible? But mark well Joshua's conduct; sin-stained as he was, he stood there still, 'he stood before the angel'. Happy for him that he did so; Satan might attack, conscience might condemn, yet would he stand still before Jehovah Jesus. Not one inch would he remove. Was... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Zechariah 3:1-10

THE FOURTH VISION: THE HIGH PRIEST AND THE SATANZechariah 3:1-10The next Visions deal with the moral condition of Israel and their standing before God. The Fourth is a judgment scene. The Angel of Jehovah, who is not to be distinguished from Jehovah Himself, stands for judgment, and there appear before him Joshua the High Priest and the Satan or Adversary who has come to accuse him. Now those who are accused by the Satan-see next chapter of this volume upon the Angels of the Visions-are,... read more

CHAPTER 3 1. The fourth night vision (Zechariah 3:1-5 ) 2. The message of the vision (Zechariah 3:6-10 ) Zechariah 3:1-5 . The fourth vision is like the first and second, closely connected with the foregoing one. It gives the crowning event of Israel’s restoration. The prophet recognizes in the figure, which is seen by him, Joshua the high priest, who is standing before the angel of the Lord, while at his right hand stands Satan to oppose him. Joshua was not clothed with his clean,... read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Zechariah 3:1-10

The Fourth Vision - Grace to the Representative High Priest Overcoming Satan's Opposition (vv. 1-5) In verse 1 the angel who talked with Zechariah showed him Joshua the high priest standing before the Angel of the Lord, and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him. We have seen that the Angel of the Lord is Christ. Joshua, being high priest, is a type of Christ, but seen here as representing Israel. Therefore he is clothed with filthy garments as taking the responsibility for Israel's... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Zechariah 3:1-10

THE PROPHET ’S OWN TIME Zechariah, like Haggai, had a twofold mission, to strengthen the hands of Israel for the rebuilding of the temple, and to quicken their hope as the earlier prophets had done, by painting in glowing colors the coming time of triumph over every foe. This mission is set before us in a two-fold division of the book. Chapters 1-8 give us a series of prophetic visions bearing primarily, upon the prophet’s own time, while chapters 9-14 deal chiefly with the events... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Zechariah 3:1-10

The "Branch" Promised Zechariah 3:0 The next vision that came before the prophet Zechariah is that of "Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the Lord, and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him" ( Zec 3:1 ). We are to understand by the pronoun in this verse God, and to read thus: And God showed me Joshua the high priest. The prophet was attended by an angel; it is important to notice the function of that angel, and to remember that it was limited to the explanation, and... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Zechariah 3:10

"In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall ye call every man his neighbour under the vine and under the fig tree." Here are the blessed consequences, and the gracious and glorious effects of the whole. Believers in Christ brought into a state of grace, mercy, and peace, sit down as under their own vine, and their fig-tree, for none can make them afraid. Sin cannot, for it is done away. Hell cannot, for Christ hath conquered hell, death, and the grave. And corruption cannot, for Christ's... read more
