Zacharie 6:10, Zacharie 6:14 BDS

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Zechariah 6:9-15

God did not only at sundry times, but in divers manners, speak in time past by the prophets to his church. In the former part of this chapter he spoke by a vision, which only the prophet himself saw; here, in this latter part, he speaks by a sign, or type, which many saw, and which, as it was explained, was an illustrious prediction of the Messiah as the priest and king of his church. Here is, I. The significant ceremony which God appointed, and that was the coronation of Joshua the high... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Zechariah 6:10

Take of "them of" the captivity ,.... That is, some of them that were returned from the captivity of Babylon, and who are mentioned by name: even of Heldai, of Tobijah, and Jedaiah, which are come from Babylon ; either with Zerubbabel and Joshua, when they came from thence; or who were now just come from those that remained there: and come thou the same day ; this very day in which they were come from thence: and go into the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah ; where the above... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Zechariah 6:10

Take of them of the captivity - The names that follow were probably those to whom the silver and golden vessels of the temple were intrusted; and who might have had bullion of silver and gold, for particular purposes, about the ornaments of the temple. The house of Josiah - Probably an artificer in silver, gold, etc. read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Zechariah 6:10

Verse 10 Let us now inquire, why the Prophet was bid to take gold from four men; for he says, Take from the transmigration. The word הגולה, egule, is to be taken in a collective sense, as in many other places. Take then from the exiles, who have now returned from Babylon to their own country. But he afterwards mentions four men; and there is some abruptness in the passage, but nothing that obscures the meaning of the Prophet; for he says, Take frown Heldai, and from Tobiah, and from Jedaiah;... read more

The ministry of Messiah. "And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying," etc. The series of striking visions which we have now been considering had a kind of "prologue" in Zechariah 1:1-6 . We seem to have the corresponding "epilogue" here. It turns on the fact of the arrival (probably about the same season, no special note of time being given as in Zechariah 7:1 ) of certain visitors at Jerusalem, with offerings for the temple, from a "far" country, viz. "Babylon" (see Zechariah... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Zechariah 6:9-15

Messiah the Prince. "Behold." I. THE COMING MAN OF THE AGES . "Branch." Lowliness, and yet dignity. The heathens fabled that the Titans were sons of heaven and earth. Here is what they vainly imagined. "Grew up." Natural development. Perfection of humanity. Long the cry was, "He cometh." We see his shadow in every sacrifice. Find his presence in every prophecy. Hear his footfall in every promise. He was the Hope of Israel, and the Desire of all nations. II. CHARGED ... read more

The matchless Man in history. "And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, Take of them of the Captivity, even of Heldai, of Tobijah, and of Jedaiah, which are come from Babylon, and come thou the same day." The crowning, the work, and the position of Joshua spoken of in these verses are obviously employed to symbolize some coming Man who would be matchless in all history. Concerning this matchless Man, we are here taught— I. THAT HE IS ONE WHOM HEAVEN COMMANDS THE ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Zechariah 6:10

Take of them of the Captivity. The verb is in the infinitive for the imperative, "take thou from the Captivity;" what he is to take is noted in the next verse. "Those of the Captivity" are certain envoys sent by the Jews who still dwelt in Babylon ( Ezekiel 1:1 ; Ezekiel 3:11 ), bearing gifts for the temple. These messengers the prophet was to visit at the house of Josiah, their host. Heldai ; or, Cheldai, in Zechariah 6:14 "Helem" or "Chelem," "The Enduring One" (Keil); "The... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Zechariah 6:10

Take of the captivity - Of that which they had brought with them. “The captivity” was, in Jeremiah ), and Ezekiel Ezekiel 1:2; Ezekiel 3:11, Ezekiel 3:15; Ezekiel 11:24-25, the title of those who had been actually carried captive and were at that moment in captivity. Ezra continues it of those who had been in captivity, though now returned from exile. Yet not without a reference to the circumstances or causes of that captivity. It is the “captivity” Ezra 1:11 which Sheshbazzar brings from... read more
