Matthew 23:35 That upon you may come all the righteous blood. Thus would they fill the measure full and become guilty of all the righteous blood shed by the whole army of martyrs. The blood of Zacharias. The reference is probably II Chronicles 24:20. He was slain in the court of the house of the Lord by the people, and died exclaiming, "The Lord look upon this and require it" (II Chronicles 24:22). He was the son of Jehoiada. The Siniatic manuscript omits "Barachias" in this place, and the error is supposed to have crept in from the mistake of some early copyist who confused this Zacharias with Zechariah the prophet, who was the son of Barachias.
