Zechariah 5:10 Meaning and Commentary

Zechariah 5:10

Then said I to the angel that talked with me;
&c.] This the prophet said after he had seen the "ephah" come forth; the woman, wickedness, cast into it, and the talent of lead upon her; and the two women lifting up the ephah between heaven and earth: Whither do these bear the ephah?
he neither asks what the ephah signified, nor who were the women that bore it, but only whither they bore it.

Zechariah 5:10 In-Context

8 He said, "This is Evil." He threw her down into the eifah and pressed the lead weight over its opening.
9 I raised my eyes and saw two women coming with the wind in their wings; for they had wings like those of a stork. They lifted the eifah up between the earth and the sky.
10 I asked the angel speaking with me, "Where are they taking the eifah?"
11 He answered me, "To build it a shrine in the land of Shin'ar. When it's ready, [the eifah] will be set down there on its base."
