Zacarías 13:5

Listen to Zacarías 13:5
5 sino que cada uno dirá: "No soy profeta, soy labrador de la tierra, porque un hombre me vendió como esclavo en mi juventud."

Zacarías 13:5 Meaning and Commentary

Zechariah 13:5

But he shall say, I [am] no prophet
That he is not of the Romish clergy, or of any of their religious orders, having laid aside his habit: I [am] an husbandman;
he shall put on the habit of a husbandman, and work for his bread; for he will not be able to support himself, as before, with the sale of pardons and indulgences, and by praying souls out of purgatory; for no man hereafter will buy of his merchandise, ( Revelation 18:11 ) and he will be ashamed of his former calling and traffic, and will not own that he was ever concerned therein; but will affirm that he was never of the Romish clergy, but always a layman, and employed in husbandry: for man taught me to keep cattle from my youth;
he will say he was brought up to husbandry, or in some mechanic business, from his youth, and never was in any convent or monastery, or of any religious order: it may be rendered, "for man made me to work from my youth" F21; and is not to be restrained to keeping cattle, or any particular employment.

Zacarías 13:5 In-Context

3 Y sucederá que si alguno profetiza todavía, su padre y su madre que lo engendraron le dirán: "No vivirás porque has hablado falsamente en el nombre del SEÑOR"; y su padre y su madre que lo engendraron lo traspasarán mientras profetiza.
4 También sucederá aquel día que los profetas se avergonzarán cada uno de su visión cuando profetice, y no se vestirán el manto de pelo para engañar,
5 sino que cada uno dirá: "No soy profeta, soy labrador de la tierra, porque un hombre me vendió como esclavo en mi juventud."
6 Y alguien le dirá: "¿Qué son esas heridas en tu cuerpo ?" Y él responderá: "Son aquéllas con que fui herido en casa de mis amigos."
7 Despierta, espada, contra mi pastor, y contra el hombre compañero mío declara el SEÑOR de los ejércitos. Hiere al pastor y se dispersarán las ovejas, y volveré mi mano contra los pequeños.
