Zacarias 7:11 Meaning and Commentary

Zechariah 7:11

But they refused to hearken
. That is, the Jews, before the captivity, refusal to give heed to the above exhortations, and obey the voice of God in them: and pulled away the shoulder;
from serving the Lord, and supporting his interest: or "they gave", or presented, "a rebellious shoulder" {f}; a refractory one, that slides back, like a backsliding or refractory heifer, that will not admit of the yoke, ( Hosea 4:16 ) so these could not bear the yoke of the law, nor the burden of duty; nor suffer the words of exhortation, or receive the admonitions given them: and stopped their ears, that they should not hear;
like the deaf adder, ( Psalms 58:4 Psalms 58:5 ) they would not hear, and pretended they could not; which was an instance of contempt to the speakers.

Zacarias 7:11 In-Context

9 “Assim diz o SENHOR dos Exércitos: Administrem a verdadeira justiça, mostrem misericórdia e compaixão uns para com os outros.
10 Não oprimam a viúva e o órfão, nem o estrangeiro e o necessitado. Nem tramem maldades uns contra os outros”.
11 Mas eles se recusaram a dar atenção; teimosamente viraram as costas e taparam os ouvidos.
12 Endureceram o coração e não ouviram a Lei e as palavras que o SENHOR dos Exércitos tinha falado, pelo seu Espírito, por meio dos antigos profetas. Por isso o SENHOR dos Exércitos irou-se muito.
13 “Quando eu os chamei, não me deram ouvidos; por isso, quando eles me chamarem, também não os ouvirei”, diz o SENHOR dos Exércitos.
