Zechariah 11:9
_ _ Then said I — at last when all means of saving the nation had been used in vain (John 8:24).
_ _ I will not — that is, no more feed you. The last rejection of the Jews is foretold, of which the former under Nebuchadnezzar, similarly described, was the type (Jeremiah 15:1-3; Jeremiah 34:17; Jeremiah 43:11; Ezekiel 6:12). Perish those who are doomed to perish, since they reject Him who would have saved them! Let them rush on to their own ruin, since they will have it so.
_ _ eat ... flesh of another — Let them madly perish by mutual discords. Josephus attests the fulfillment of this prophecy of threefold calamity: pestilence and famine (“dieth ... die”), war (“cut off ... cut off”), intestine discord (“eat ... one ... another”). |
Zechariah 11:9
Then — After that time of his patient feeding the flock, and cutting off the unfaithful shepherds. Cut off — By the sword or famine. The flesh — Either live to be besieged, 'till hunger makes the living eat the dead, or by seditions and bloody intestine quarrels, destroy each other. |
