Zechariah 10:11
_ _ pass ... sea with affliction — Personifying the “sea”; He shall afflict the sea, that is, cause it to cease to be an obstacle to Israel’s return to Palestine (Isaiah 11:15, Isaiah 11:16). Vulgate translates, “The strait of the sea.” Maurer, “He shall cleave and smite.” English Version is best (Psalms 114:3). As Jehovah smote the Red Sea to make a passage for His people (Exodus 14:16, Exodus 14:21), so hereafter shall He make a way through every obstacle which opposes Israel’s restoration.
_ _ the river — the Nile (Amos 8:8; Amos 9:5), or the Euphrates. Thus the Red Sea and the Euphrates in the former part of the verse answer to “Assyria” and “Egypt” in the latter.
_ _ sceptre of Egypt ... depart — (Ezekiel 30:13). |
Zechariah 10:11
And he passed through — The whole verse is an allusion to what God had done in the two famous deliverances of his people, bringing them out of Egypt, through the Red Sea, and through Jordan, and destroying the Egyptians, and delivering them out of Assyrian bondage, and in order thereto, destroying that kingdom. |
Zechariah 10:11
And he (m) shall pass through the sea with affliction, and shall smite the waves in the sea, and all the deeps of the river shall dry up: and the pride of Assyria shall be brought down, and the sceptre of Egypt shall depart.
(m) He alludes to the deliverance of the people out of Egypt, when the angel smote the floods and rivers. |

|
- the sceptre:
Ezekiel 29:14-16 And I will bring again the captivity of Egypt, and will cause them to return [into] the land of Pathros, into the land of their habitation; and they shall be there a base kingdom. ...
