The Coming of the Lord

1 I lifted up mine eyes again, and looked, and behold a man with a measuring line in his hand.

2 Then said I, Whither goest thou? And he said unto me, To measure Jerusalem, to see what is the breadth thereof, and what is the length thereof.

3 And, behold, the angel that talked with me went forth, and another angel went out to meet him,

4 And said unto him, Run, speak to this young man, saying, Jerusalem shall be inhabited as towns without walls for the multitude of men and cattle therein:

5 For I, saith the LORD, will be unto her a wall of fire round about, and will be the glory in the midst of her.

6 Ho, ho, come forth, and flee from the land of the north, saith the LORD: for I have spread you abroad as the four winds of the heaven, saith the LORD.

7 Deliver thyself, O Zion, that dwellest with the daughter of Babylon.

8 For thus saith the LORD of hosts; After the glory hath he sent me unto the nations which spoiled you: for he that toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye.

9 For, behold, I will shake mine hand upon them, and they shall be a spoil to their servants: and ye shall know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me.

10 Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion: for, lo, I come, and I will dwell in the midst of thee, saith the LORD.

11 And many nations shall be joined to the LORD in that day, and shall be my people: and I will dwell in the midst of thee, and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto thee.

12 And the LORD shall inherit Judah his portion in the holy land, and shall choose Jerusalem again.

13 Be silent, O all flesh, before the LORD: for he is raised up out of his holy habitation.

Commentary

Zechariah 2 is a powerful chapter that speaks of the Lord's promise to protect and restore His people. The Lord speaks to Zechariah, telling him to "Run, for your life, from the land of the north" (v. 6). This is a call to action for the people of Israel, who were in exile in Babylon. The Lord promises to protect them and bring them back to their homeland. He also promises to be a wall of fire around them, a symbol of His protection and presence. The Lord then speaks of the coming of the Messiah, who will bring peace and justice to the world. He will be a light to the nations, and will bring salvation to all who believe in Him. This is a powerful reminder of the Lord's faithfulness and His promise to bring redemption to His people. The chapter ends with a call to repentance and a reminder of the Lord's promise to forgive and restore those who turn to Him. This is a powerful reminder of the Lord's mercy and grace, and a reminder that He is always ready to forgive and restore those who turn to Him.
