Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Zechariah 1:11

_ _ The attendant angels report to the Lord of angels, “the earth ... is at rest.” The flourishing state of the heathen “earth,” while Judah was desolate and its temple not yet restored, is the powerful plea in the Divine Angel’s intercession with God the Father in Zechariah 1:12. When Judah was depressed to the lowest point, and the heathen elated to the highest, it was time for Jehovah to work for His people.

_ _ sitteth still — dwells surely.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Zechariah 1:7-17.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Zechariah 1:11

Is at rest — All men sit still to take their ease. All is peaceable. This was the state of the empire which at that time ruled all.
