Haggai 2:23
_ _ take thee — under My protection and to promote thee and thy people to honor (Psalms 78:70).
_ _ a signet — (Song of Songs 8:6; Jeremiah 22:24). A ring with a seal on it; the legal representative of the owner; generally of precious stones and gold, etc., and much valued. Being worn on the finger, it was an object of constant regard. In all which points of view the theocratic people, and their representative, Zerubbabel the type, and Messiah his descendant the Antitype, are regarded by God. The safety of Israel to the end is guaranteed in Messiah, in whom God hath chosen them as His own (Isaiah 42:1; Isaiah 43:10; Isaiah 44:1; Isaiah 49:3). So the spiritual Israel is sealed in their covenant head by His Spirit (2 Corinthians 1:20, 2 Corinthians 1:22; Ephesians 1:4, Ephesians 1:13, Ephesians 1:14). All is ascribed, not to the merits of Zerubbabel, but to God’s gratuitous choice. Christ is the “signet” on God’s hand: always in the Father’s presence, ever pleasing in his sight. The signet of an Eastern monarch was the sign of delegated authority; so Christ (Matthew 28:18; John 5:22, John 5:23). |
Haggai 2:23
My servant — A type of him who was God's most beloved servant. As a signet — Which is very highly valued, and carefully kept. So shall the antitypical Zerubbabel, the Messiah, be advanced, loved, and inviolably preserved king, and supreme over his church. He is indeed the signet on God's right — hand. For all power is given to him, and derived from him. In him the great charter of the gospel is signed, and sanctified, and it is in him, that all the promises of God are yea and amen. |
Haggai 2:23
In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, will I take thee, O Zerubbabel, my servant, the son of Shealtiel, saith the LORD, and will make thee as a (o) signet: for I have chosen thee, saith the LORD of hosts.
(o) Signifying that his dignity would be most excellent, which thing was accomplished in Christ. |
- O Zerubbabel:
- It seems evident that the Messiah is here described under the name of Zerubbabel, as elsewhere under that of David, whose kingdom, after these mighty convulsions, should supersede all others.
