Zechariah 14:6 - Forerunner Commentary

Zechariah 14:6

4 And in that day His feet will stand ^aon the Mount of Olives,
Which faces Jerusalem on the east.
And the Mount of Olives shall be split in two,
From east to west,
^bMaking a very large valley;
Half of the mountain shall move toward the north
And half of it toward the south.

5 Then you shall flee through My mountain valley,
For the mountain valley shall reach to Azal.
Yes, you shall flee
As you fled from the ^aearthquake
In the days of Uzziah king of Judah.
^bThus the Lord my God will come,
And ^call the saints with You.

6 It shall come to pass in that day
That the¹re will be no light;
The lights will diminish.

7 It shall be one day
^aWhich is known to the Lord—
Neither day nor night.
But at ^bevening time it shall happen
That it will be light.

8 And in that day it shall be
That living ^awaters shall flow from Jerusalem,
Half of them toward¹ the eastern sea
And half of them toward¹ the western sea;
In both summer and winter it shall occur.

9 And the Lord shall be ^aKing over all the earth.
In that day it shall be—
^b“The Lord is one,”
And His name one.

10 All the land shall be turned into a plain from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem. Jerusalem shall be raised up and ^ainhabited in her place from Benjamin’s Gate to the place of the First Gate and the Corner Gate, ^band from the Tower of Hananel to the king’s winepresses.

11 The people shall dwell in it;
And ^ano longer shall there be utter destruction,
^bBut Jerusalem shall be safely inhabited.

12 And this shall be the plague with which the Lord will strike all the people who fought against Jerusalem:
Their flesh shall¹ dissolve while they stand on their feet,
Their eyes shall dissolve in their sockets,
And their tongues shall dissolve in their mouths.
