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.

Zechariah 2:10 In-Context

8 Anyone who strikes you strikes what is most precious to me." So the Lord Almighty sent me with this message for the nations that had plundered his people:
9 "The Lord himself will fight against you, and you will be plundered by the people who were once your servants." When this happens, everyone will know that the Lord Almighty sent me.
10 The Lord said, "Sing for joy, people of Jerusalem! I am coming to live among you!"
11 At that time many nations will come to the Lord and become his people. He will live among you, and you will know that he has sent me to you.
12 Once again Judah will be the special possession of the Lord in his sacred land, and Jerusalem will be the city he loves most of all.
