Za 2, 1-13

1 And I lifted up my eyes, and I saw, and behold, a man, and in his hand was a measuring line. 2 And I said, “Where are you going?” And he said to me, “To measure Jerusalem, so that I may see how great its width and how great its length may be.” 3 And behold, the angel, who had been speaking with me, departed, and another angel went out to meet him. 4 And he said to him: Hurry, speak to this young man, saying: Jerusalem will be inhabited without walls, because of the multitude of men and beasts of burden in its midst. 5 And I will be to it, says the Lord, a wall of fire all around. And in glory, I will be in its midst. 6 O, O flee from the land of the North, says the Lord, for I have scattered you into the four winds of heaven, says the Lord. 7 O Zion, flee, you who dwell with the daughter of Babylon. 8 For thus says the Lord of hosts: After the glory, he has sent me to the Gentiles, which have despoiled you. For he who touches you, touches the pupil of my eye. 9 For behold, I lift up my hand over them, and they will be a prey to those who had served them. And you will know that the Lord of hosts has sent me. 10 Sing praise and rejoice, daughter of Zion. For behold, I approach, and I will dwell in your midst, says the Lord. 11 And many nations will be joined to the Lord in that day, and they will be my people, and I will dwell in your midst. And you will know that the Lord of hosts has sent me to you. 12 And the Lord will possess his portion, Judah, in the sanctified land, and still he will single out Jerusalem. 13 Let all flesh be silent before the face of the Lord: for he has arisen from his holy dwelling place. 527

Verš 10

Sing praise and rejoice, daughter of Zion. For behold, I approach, and I will dwell in your midst, says the Lord.

Lv 26:12 - I will walk among you, and I will be your God, and you shall be my people.

Ez 37:27 - And my tabernacle shall be among them. And I will be their God, and they will be my people.

2Kor 6:16 - And what consensus does the temple of God have with idols? For you are the temple of the living God, just as God says: “I will dwell with them, and I will walk among them. And I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

Zach 2,1-4 - Druhým videním naznačuje Boh, že oslobodí svoj národ od nepriateľov, a tak pripraví jeho obnovu. Štyri rohy neoznačujú azda štyri určité nepriateľské národy, ale všetkých nepriateľov Júdu, ktorí prichádzali zo štyroch strán sveta. Remeselníci, ktorí prichádzali postrašiť a zdolať nepriateľov, sú anjeli. Roh je známy symbol sily. - O anjelovi pozri pozn. k 1,9.

Zach 2,5 - Muž s meradlom v ruke je anjel. Premeraním stavebnej plochy Jeruzalema chce Boh ubezpečiť národ, že sa výstavba mesta určite dokončí.

Zach 2,7-9 - Anjel má povedať prorokovi, že nový Jeruzalem nemožno múrmi obmedziť, pretože bude mať veľké množstvo obyvateľov; porov. Iz 54,2 n. Ale mesto ani nepotrebuje ohrád, sám Pán ho bude ochraňovať, bude mu ohnivým, nedobytným múrom.

Zach 2,10 - Severná krajina je Babylon. Izraeliti, ktorí ešte ostali v Babylone, sa vyzývajú, aby sa vrátili na Sion.

Zach 2,12 - Hovorí síce Pán, ale ústami anjela, ktorého poslal potrestať nepriateľov svojho národa, ktorý opatruje ako svoju zreničku. Pri potrestaní nepriateľov zjaví sa Božia sláva a prorok sa presvedčí, že anjela, ktorý im toto v Zachariášovom videní predpovedá, poslal Pán.

Zach 2,15 - V mesiášskej ríši Pánovým ľudom budú všetky národy. To bude znamením, že sa predpovede splnili.
