Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Zechariah 10:8

8. hiss for them—Keepers of bees by a whistle call them together. So Jehovah by the mere word of His call shall gather back to Palestine His scattered people (Zechariah 10:10; Isaiah 5:26; Ezekiel 36:11). The multitudes mentioned by JOSEPHUS [Wars of the Jews, 3:2], as peopling Galilee two hundred years after this time, were a pledge of the future more perfect fulfilment of the prophecy. for I have redeemed them—namely, in My covenant purpose "redeemed" both temporally and spiritually. as they... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Zechariah 10:9

9. sow them among . . . people—Their dispersion was with a special design. Like seed sown far and wide, they shall, when quickened themselves, be the fittest instruments for quickening others (compare Micah 5:7). The slight hold they have on every soil where they now live, as also the commercial and therefore cosmopolitan character of their pursuits, making a change of residence easy to them, fit them peculiarly for missionary work [MOORE]. The wide dispersion of the Jews just before Christ's... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Zechariah 10:10

10. Egypt . . . Assyria—the former the first, the latter among the last of Israel's oppressors (or representing the four great world kingdoms, of which it was the first): types of the present universal dispersion, Egypt being south, Assyria north, opposite ends of the compass. MAURER conjectures that many Israelites fled to "Egypt" on the invasion of Tiglath-pileser. But Isaiah 11:11 and this passage rather accord with the view of the future restoration. Gilead . . . Lebanon—The whole of the... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Zechariah 10:11

11. pass . . . sea with affliction—Personifying the "sea"; He shall afflict the sea, that is, cause it to cease to be an obstacle to Israel's return to Palestine (Isaiah 11:15; Isaiah 11:16). Vulgate translates, "The strait of the sea." MAURER, "He shall cleave and smite." English Version is best (Psalms 114:3). As Jehovah smote the Red Sea to make a passage for His people (Exodus 14:16; Exodus 14:21), so hereafter shall He make a way through every obstacle which opposes Israel's restoration.... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Zechariah 10:6

The Lord would strengthen, deliver, and restore the house of Judah and the house of Joseph (Ephraim), both the former Northern and Southern Kingdoms. He would do this simply because He had compassion on them, not because they deserved His blessing. He would restore the Israelites to a condition similar to the one they enjoyed before He sent them into captivity, including sovereignty within their own homeland. He would do this because He is Yahweh, their God. He would answer their prayers for... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Zechariah 10:7

Then the Israelites who previously had been weak from idolatry and apostasy would be strong. They and their children would rejoice in the Lord when He saved them (Psalms 32:11; Philippians 4:4). read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Zechariah 10:8

The Lord, the true shepherd of His flock, would simply whistle and His people would follow Him because He had redeemed them (Exodus 12; Isaiah 35:10; Micah 6:4; John 10:11-16; 1 Peter 1:18-19). They would again be as numerous as they had been in the days of their greatest prosperity."Just as redemption, that is, election, theologically preceded the actual exodus escape from Egypt (Exodus 2:24; Exodus 3:7-8; Exodus 4:22-23; Exodus 6:2-8), so it is on the basis of an already effected redemption... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Zechariah 10:9

When the Lord scattered His people like seed among the other peoples of the world, they would remember Him even though they lived far from the Promised Land (cf. John 12:24; 1 Corinthians 15:36). Not only would the Lord remember them (the meaning of Zechariah’s name), but they would remember Him. They and their children would enter into new life and return to the land. Sowing anticipates reaping a harvest and so connotes hope.". . . even after Israel had been restored to the land after the... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Zechariah 10:10

Yahweh would bring the Israelites back from the land of Egypt to Israel’s south, where they had been slaves, and from the land of Assyria to its north, where they had been exiles, namely, from all over the world (cf. Isaiah 11:11-16; Isaiah 19:23; Hosea 11:10). Probably Zechariah used Assyria as his example of a northern enemy rather than Babylonia because Assyria, and Egypt, were Israel’s most persistent and hostile enemies historically. He would bring the Israelites back into the fruitful... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Zechariah 10:11

Yahweh’s representative, Messiah, would pass through the sea of His people’s distress and banish it, as He had done to the Red Sea when the Israelites left Egypt in the Exodus (and as Jesus did when He calmed the Sea of Galilee). He would humble all Israel’s enemies, of which Egypt and Assyria were only representatives. The Gentile leaders of the world, symbolized by Egypt’s scepter, would no longer hold sway over Israel in the world. read more
