Zechariah 13:7 - Forerunner Commentary

Zechariah 13:7

5 ^aBut he will say, ‘I am no prophet, I am a farmer; for a man taught me to keep cattle from my youth.’

6 And one will say to him, ‘What are these wounds between your¹ arms?’ Then he will answer, ‘Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.’

The Shepherd Savior

7 “Awake, O sword, against ^aMy Shepherd,
Against the Man ^bwho is My Companion,”
Says the Lord of hosts.
^c“Strike the Shepherd,
And the sheep will be scattered;
Then I will turn My hand against ^dthe little ones.

8 And it shall come to pass in all the land,”
Says the Lord,
“That ^atwo-thirds in it shall be cut off and die,
^bBut one–third shall be left in it:

9 I will bring the one–third ^athrough the fire,
Will ^brefine them as silver is refined,
And test them as gold is tested.
^cThey will call on My name,
And I will answer them.
^dI will say, ‘This is My people’;
And each one will say, ‘The Lord is my God.’ ”
