Zechariah 14:19

19 hoc erit peccatum Aegypti et hoc peccatum omnium gentium quae non ascenderint ad celebrandam festivitatem tabernaculorum

Zechariah 14:19 Meaning and Commentary

Zechariah 14:19

This shall be the punishment of Egypt
Or "sin" ^F4, as in the original text: rightly is the word rendered "punishment", as it is by the Targum:

and the punishment of all nations that come not up to keep the
feast of tabernacles;
which will be one and the same; they shall have no rain, or what answers to it; they shall all have a famine; or it will be different, Egypt shall be punished with a consumption of their flesh, and the other nations with want of rain: the former sense seems best.

Zechariah 14:19 In-Context

17 et erit qui non ascenderit de familiis terrae ad Hierusalem ut adoret regem Dominum exercituum non erit super eos imber

18 quod si et familia Aegypti non ascenderit et non venerit nec super eos erit sed erit ruina qua percutiet Dominus omnes gentes quae non ascenderint ad celebrandam festivitatem tabernaculorum

19 hoc erit peccatum Aegypti et hoc peccatum omnium gentium quae non ascenderint ad celebrandam festivitatem tabernaculorum

20 in die illo erit quod super frenum equi est sanctum Domino et erunt lebetes in domo Domini quasi fialae coram altari

21 et erit omnis lebes in Hierusalem et in Iuda sanctificatus Domino exercituum et venient omnes immolantes et sument ex eis et coquent in eis et non erit mercator ultra in domo Domini exercituum in die illo
