crowns

Following the earth-judgments symbolized in the horsed chariots ( Zechariah 6:1-8 ) comes the manifestation of Christ in His kingdom glory ( Zechariah 6:9-15 ). This is the invariable prophetic order: first the judgments of the day of the Lord ; Isaiah 2:10-22 ; Revelation 19:11-21 then the kingdom (cf) ; Psalms 2:5 ; 2:6 ; Isaiah 3:24-26 ; 4:2-6 ; Isaiah 10:33 Isaiah 10:34 ; 11:1-10 ; Revelation 19:19-21 ; 20:4-6 . This is set forth symbolically by the crowning of Joshua, which was not a vision, but actually done (cf) ; Isaiah 8:3 Isaiah 8:4 ; Ezekiel 37:16-22 . The fulfilment in the BRANCH will infinitely transcend the symbol. He "shall bear the glory" ; Zechariah 6:13 ; Matthew 16:27 ; 24:30 ; 25:31 as the Priest-King on His own throne ( Zechariah 6:12 Zechariah 6:13 ; Hebrews 7:1-3 ). Christ is now a Priest, but still in the holiest within the veil ; Leviticus 16:15 ; Hebrews 9:11-14 Hebrews 9:24 and seated on the Father's throne Revelation 3:21 . He has not yet come out to take His own throne Hebrews 9:28 . The crowns made for the symbolical crowning of Joshua were to be laid up in the temple as a memorial to keep alive this larger hope of Israel.
