Zacarías 2:6

6 Eh, eh, huid de la tierra del aquilón, dice el SEÑOR, porque por los cuatro vientos de los cielos os esparcí, dice el SEÑOR

Zacarías 2:6 Meaning and Commentary

Zechariah 2:6

Ho, ho
This word expresses a call and proclamation; and is doubled, as Kimchi observes, to confirm it; and so the Targum paraphrases it,

``proclaim to the dispersed:''

[come forth], and flee from the land of the north, saith the Lord;
that is, from Babylon, which lay north of Judea; see ( Jeremiah 1:13 Jeremiah 1:14 ) ( Jeremiah 3:12 ) ( 6:22 ) ( 16:15 ) where many of the Jews continued, and did not return with the rest when they came up out of the captivity; and are therefore called to come forth from thence in haste; and figuratively designs, either the people of God that are among the men of the world, and are called to separate from them, and have no fellowship with there; or such as will be in mystical Babylon, a little before its destruction; and will be called out of it, lest they partake of her plagues; see ( Revelation 18:4 ) : for I have spread you abroad as the four winds of the heaven, saith
the Lord;
meaning either the dispersion of the Jews in Babylon, and other countries; or of the people of God, being scattered up and down in the jurisdiction of Rome Papal; or the sense is, that it was his will and purpose, when they were come out of Babylon, that they should be spread in the several parts of the world, to support the cause of Christ, and strengthen his interest.

Zacarías 2:6 In-Context

4 Y le dijo: Corre, habla a este joven, diciendo: Sin murallas será habitada Jerusalén a causa de la multitud de los hombres, y de las bestias en medio de ella

5 Yo seré para ella, dice el SEÑOR, muro de fuego en derredor, y seré por gloria en medio de ella

6 Eh, eh, huid de la tierra del aquilón, dice el SEÑOR, porque por los cuatro vientos de los cielos os esparcí, dice el SEÑOR

7 Oh Sion, la que moras con la hija de Babilonia, escápate

8 Porque así dijo el SEÑOR de los ejércitos: Después de la gloria me enviará él a los gentiles que os despojaron; porque el que os toca, toca a la niña de su ojo
