Zechariah 6:4 Meaning and Commentary

Zechariah 6:4

Then I answered and said unto the angel that talked with
me
After he had seen the chariots come out, and had observed the different colours of the horses in them: what [are] these, my lord?
that is, what do they signify? what is the meaning of this vision?

Zechariah 6:4 In-Context

2 The first chariot was drawn by red horses, the second chariot by black horses,
3 the third chariot by white horses, and the fourth chariot by dappled horses. All the horses were powerful.
4 I asked the Messenger-Angel, "Sir, what's the meaning here?"
5 The angel answered, "These are the four winds of heaven, which originate with the Master of the whole earth.
6 The black horses are headed north with the white ones right after them. The dappled horses are headed south."
