Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Zechariah 6:14

Zechariah 6:14. And the crowns shall be to Helem— And the crowns shall be for the family of Heldai, namely, to Tobijah, &c. Houbigant. See 1Ma 1:23; 1Ma 4:57. Though the last verse may refer literally to the Jews, and other artificers flowing in from all parts to build the temple; yet it has had, and will have, its more ample completion in the conversion of the world to Christ, that true temple of the living God. See Isa 60:10 and John 2:19. REFLECTIONS.—1st, The vision of this chapter is... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Zechariah 6:12

12. Behold, the man—namely, shall arise. Pilate unconsciously spake God's will concerning Him, "Behold the man" ( :-). The sense here is, "Behold in Joshua a remarkable shadowing forth of Messiah." It is not for his own sake that the crown is placed on him, but as type of Messiah about to be at once king and priest. Joshua could not individually be crowned king, not being of the royal line of David, but only in his representative character. Branch—(See on :-; Isaiah 4:2; Jeremiah 23:5;... read more

13. bear the glory—that is, wear the insignia of the kingly glory, "the crowns" (Psalms 21:5; Psalms 102:16; Isaiah 52:13). He himself shall bear the glory, not thou, Joshua, though thou dost bear the crowns. The Church's dignity is in her head alone, Christ. So Eliakim, type of Messiah, was to have "all the glory of his father's house hung upon him" (Isaiah 52:13- :). sit—implying security and permanence. priest . . . throne— (Genesis 14:18; Psalms 110:4; Hebrews 5:6; Hebrews 5:10; Hebrews... read more

14. the crowns shall be to Helem . . . a memorial—deposited in the temple, to the honor of the donors; a memorial, too, of the coronation of Joshua, to remind all of Messiah, the promised antitypical king-priest, soon to come. Helem, the same as Heldai Zechariah 6:10. So Hen (that is, "favor") is another name for Josiah (that is, "God founds") above. The same person often had two names. read more

III. THE SYMBOLIC CROWNING OF Joshua 6:9-15The visions ended and Zechariah awoke from his dream-like state. What follows is a symbolic act that took place in Jerusalem at the Lord’s command."The position of this actual ceremony after the eight visions is significant. The fourth and fifth visions, at the center of the series, were concerned with the high priest [Joshua] and the civil governor in the Davidic line [Zerubbabel]. Zechariah here linked the message of those two visions to the... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Zechariah 6:12

Zechariah was then to announce in the name of sovereign Yahweh that those present should behold Joshua, whom Zechariah would designate as Branch (lit. Sprout, Heb. semah, cf. Zechariah 3:8; Isaiah 11:1; Isaiah 53:2; Jeremiah 33:15; Haggai 2:23). Joshua represented (was a type of) the coming messianic Branch. This name signified that the coming Shoot would shoot up from His humble place of origin (cf. Isaiah 53:2; Micah 5:2). "He will branch out from where He is" is a pun on the word "branch."... read more

Indeed He (emphatic in the Hebrew text) would build the Lord’s temple. The Lord repeated this assurance for emphasis. The Branch would bear the honor of royal majesty (cf. Daniel 11:21; 1 Chronicles 29:25), sit enthroned-Israel’s priests never sat while ministering-and rule on David’s throne (cf. 2 Samuel 7:16; Isaiah 9:7; Luke 1:32). He would be a priest ruling as a king, and peace (Heb. shalom) would mark his dual offices.Along with Psalms 110, this verse is one of the clearest statements in... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Zechariah 6:14

The ceremonial crown that Zechariah made for Joshua was to remain in the restoration temple as a reminder to Helem (strength; or Heldai, mole, Zechariah 6:10), Tobijah, Jedaiah, and Hen (Josiah) the son of Zephaniah. It would doubtless remind other Israelites as well, but they were the prominent men during this event. "Hen" means "gracious one" in Hebrew, and it was likely an honorary title for Josiah who had been the host of this historic coronation (Zechariah 6:10). read more

The Eighth Vision. The Symbolic Crowning1-8. Four war-chariots, with variously coloured horses, go forth to execute God’s judgments against the enemies of oppressed Israel in different parts of the earth. Two, in particular, go. northwards, to ’quiet His spirit’ (i.e. to satisfy His anger) upon Babylon. 9-15. Zechariah is commanded to take gold and silver from the Temple offerings, and make a crown for Joshua the high priest. At the same time, the Messiah (’Branch’) is again promised.

A SERIES OF SEVEN VISIONS.Zechariah 1:7 to Zechariah 6:15. Between the commencement of Zechariah’s prophetic labours and the incidents recorded in Zechariah 1:7 to Zechariah 6:15, the Prophet Haggai received the revelation contained in Haggai 2:10-23. On the four-and-twentieth day of the eleventh month, just five months after the re-building of the Temple was resumed, Zechariah sees a succession of seven visions in one night, followed by a symbolic action (Zechariah 6:9-15). read more
