Zecharyah 14:3 Meaning and Commentary

Zechariah 14:3

Then shall the Lord go forth
Out of his place in heaven, either in person, or by the display of his power; that is, the Lord Jesus Christ; whose name is called the Word of God, and is the King of kings, and Lord of lords, described as a mighty warrior, ( Revelation 19:11 ) : and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of
battle:
the Targum adds, "at the Red Sea"; when the Lord fought for, Israel against the Egyptians, ( Exodus 14:25 ) and afterwards against the Canaanites, when they entered the land of Canaan under Joshua: thus Christ shall judge, and make war in righteousness, and overcome those that shall make war with him; and with the sharp sword that goeth out of his mouth shall smite nations, and with a rod of iron rule them, and break them to shivers, ( Revelation 14:14 ) ( Revelation 19:11 Revelation 19:15 ) ( 2:27 ) see also ( Ezekiel 38:21 Ezekiel 38:22 ) ( Ezekiel 39:1 Ezekiel 39:8 Ezekiel 39:4 ) .

Zecharyah 14:3 In-Context

1 4 Hinei, a day cometh for Hashem, when the plunder taken from thee shall among thee be divided.

2 For I will gather kol HaGoyim against Yerushalayim for milchamah (battle, war); and HaIr (the city, Yerushalayim) shall be taken, and the batim (houses) plundered, and the women ravished; and half of HaIr shall go forth into the Golus (exile), and the rest of the people shall not be cut off from HaIr.

3 Then shall Hashem go forth, and fight against those Goyim, as He fights in the Yom Krav (day of battle).

4 And in Yom HaHu, His raglayim (feet; see Ac 1:11-12) shall stand upon the Mount of Olives, which is east of Yerushalayim, and the Mount of Olives shall be split in two from east to west by a gey gedolah me’od (a very great valley), with half of the mountain moving to the north, and half of it to the south.

5 And ye shall flee to the gey (valley) in the mountains; for the gey (valley) of the harim (mountains) shall extend unto Atzel; yea, ye shall flee, just as ye fled from before the ra’ash (earthquake) in the days of Uziyah Melech Yehudah; and Hashem Elohai shall come, and kol Kadoshim (all the holy ones) with Thee [see Daniel 7:13-14].
