Zacarías 12:1 Meaning and Commentary

Zechariah 12:1

The burden of the word of the Lord for Israel
And against their enemies; for the good of the church of God, for its joy, comfort, and salvation; or, "concerning Israel" F24; what shall befall them in the latter day, as the destruction of antichrist, prophesied of in the preceding chapter ( Zechariah 11:1-17 ) ; and what is hereafter said may be believed that it shall be accomplished. The Lord is described in the greatness of his power, speaking as follows: saith the Lord, which stretcheth forth the heavens:
as a curtain, ( Psalms 104:2 ) the expanse or firmament of heaven, which is stretched out as a canopy over all the earth around: and layeth the foundation of the earth;
firm and sure, though upon the seas and floods, yea, upon nothing, ( Psalms 24:2 ) ( Job 26:7 ) : and formeth the spirit of man within him;
the soul of man, with all its powers and faculties, gifts and endowments; which is of his immediate creation, and which he continues daily to form, and infuse into the bodies of men, and holds in life there; hence he is called the Father of spirits, ( Hebrews 12:9 ) .

Zacarías 12:1 In-Context

1 Profecía, palabra del SEÑOR acerca de Israel. El SEÑOR que extiende los cielos, pone los cimientos de la tierra y forma el espíritu del hombre dentro de él, declara:
2 He aquí, yo haré de Jerusalén una copa de vértigo para todos los pueblos de alrededor, y cuando haya asedio contra Jerusalén, también lo habrá contra Judá.
3 Y sucederá aquel día que haré de Jerusalén una piedra pesada para todos los pueblos; todos los que la levanten serán severamente desgarrados. Y contra ella se congregarán todas las naciones de la tierra.
4 Aquel díadeclara el SEÑORheriré a todo caballo de espanto, y a su jinete, de locura. Pero sobre la casa de Judá abriré mis ojos, mientras hiero de ceguera a todo caballo de los pueblos.
5 Entonces los jefes de familias de Judá dirán en su corazón: "Gran apoyo para nosotros son los habitantes de Jerusalén por el SEÑOR de los ejércitos, su Dios."
