Zechariah 13:8-9
_ _ Two-thirds of the Jewish nation were to perish in the Roman wars, and a third to survive. Probably from the context (Zechariah 14:2-9), which has never yet been fulfilled, the destruction of the two-thirds (literally, “the proportion of two,” or “portion of two”) and the saving of the remnant, the one-third, are still future, and to be fulfilled under Antichrist. |
