Zechariah 2:10 Meaning and Commentary

Zechariah 2:10

Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion
Or, "congregation of Zion", as the Targum paraphrases it; the Jewish church, great numbers of that people being converted, and in a church state; or the whole Christian church at this time, consisting of Jews and Gentiles, who are called upon to rejoice and sing at the destruction of antichrist; see ( Revelation 18:20 ) ( Revelation 19:1 Revelation 19:2 ) and because of the presence of God in the midst of them, as follows: for, lo, I come;
not in the flesh: this is not to be understood of the incarnation of Christ; or of his coming in human nature to dwell in the land of Judea; but of his spiritual coming in the latter day, to set up his kingdom in the world, in a more visible and glorious manner: and I will dwell in the midst of thee, saith the Lord;
the presence of Christ in his churches, and with his people, in attendance on his word and ordinances, will be very manifest and constant in the latter day.
