Compare all
4 “I will send out the curse,” says the Lord of hosts;
“It shall enter the house of the athief
And the house of bthe one who swears falsely by My name.
It shall remain in the midst of his house
And consume cit, with its timber and stones.”  

Vision of the Woman in a Basket

5 Then the angel who talked with me came out and said to me, “Lift your eyes now, and see what this is that goes forth.”
6 So I asked, “What is it?” And he said, “It is a1 basket that is going forth.” He also said, “This is their resemblance throughout the earth:  
7 Here is a lead disc lifted up, and this is a woman sitting inside the basket”;
8 then he said, “This is Wickedness!” And he thrust her down into the basket, and threw the lead1 cover over its mouth.  
9 Then I raised my eyes and looked, and there were two women, coming with the wind in their wings; for they had wings like the wings of a astork, and they lifted up the basket between earth and heaven.  
10 So I said to the aangel who talked with me, “Where are they carrying the basket?”

Zechariah 5:6

He - The angel. An ephah - A measure which held about three bushels. Goeth forth - Out of the temple. Their resemblance - This is an emblem of this people everywhere. Thus there is limited time and measure for them, while they sin, and are filling the ephah with their sins, they will find that the ephah of wrath is filled up also, to be poured out upon them.
