Zechariah 11:13

Cast it. As in Genesis 21:15 . 2 Chronicles 24:10 . unto the potter. The Syriac reads "into the treasury".

potter = fashioner. The material cast to, so as to be used by, the fashioner determines the meaning of the word (Hebrew. yazar) . If clay, then a potter (Jeremiah 18:4 ; Jeremiah 19:1 ). If stone, then a jeweller, or mason (Ex. Zec 28:11 , 2 Samuel 5:11 ; 1 Chronicles 22:15 ). If wood, then a carpenter (1 Samuel 5:11 . 2Ki 12:11 . 1 Chronicles 14:1 .Isaiah 44:13; Isaiah 44:13 ). If iron, then a smith (2 Chronicles 24:12 .Isaiah 44:12; Isaiah 44:12 ). If gold, then a goldsmith (Hosea 8:6 ). If silver, then a silversmith (Hosea 13:2 ). The casting of silver to a potter was as incongruous as casting clay to a silversmith. See App-161 .

goodly = ample. Used of a wide garment. There is no evidence of irony here or elsewhere in Zechariah. The Hebrew 'eder denotes size and amplitude, as in Jonah 3:6 and Micah 2:8 .

prised = priced.
