Compare all

2 And the Lord said to Satan, ^a“The Lord rebuke you, Satan! The Lord who ^bhas chosen Jerusalem rebuke you! ^cIs this not a brand plucked from the fire?”

3 Now Joshua was clothed with ^afilthy garments, and was standing before the Angel.

4 Then He answered and spoke to those who stood before Him, saying, “Take away the filthy garments from him.” And to him He said, “See, I have removed your iniquity from you, ^aand I will clothe you with rich robes.”

5 And I said, “Let them put a clean ^aturban on his head.” So they put a clean turban on his head, and they put the clothes on him. And the Angel of the Lord stood by.

The Coming Branch

6 Then the Angel of the Lord admonished Joshua, saying,

7 “Thus says the Lord of hosts:
‘If you will walk in My ways,
And if you will ^akeep My command,
Then you shall also ^bjudge My house,
And likewise have charge of My courts;
I will give you places to walk
Among these who ^cstand here.

Zechariah 3:4

Take away the filthy garments - The Jews wore sackcloth in times of public calamity; probably the filthy garments refer to this. Let their clothing be changed. I have turned again their captivity; I will fully restore them, and blot out all their iniquities.
