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 The angel said, "She stands for everything that is evil." Then he pushed her down into the basket. He put the lead cover back over its opening.
9 I looked up and saw two other women. They had wings like the wings of a stork. A wind sent by the LORD carried them along. They lifted the basket up between heaven and earth.
10 "Where are they taking the basket?" I asked the angel.
11 He replied, "To the country of Babylonia. A temple will be built for it. When the temple is ready, the basket will be set there in its place."
