_ _ turned — or, “changed round about”: literally, “to make a circuit.” The whole hilly land round Jerusalem, which would prevent the free passage of the living waters, shall be changed so as to be “as a (or the) plain” (Isaiah 40:4).
_ _ from Geba to Rimmon — Geba (2 Kings 23:8) in Benjamin, the north border of Judah. Rimmon, in Simeon (Joshua 15:32), the south border of Judah; not the Rimmon northeast of Michmash. “The plain from Geba to Rimmon” (that is, from one boundary to the other) is the Arabah or plain of the Jordan, extending from the Sea of Tiberias to the Elanitic Gulf of the Red Sea.

Zechariah 14:10
All the land — The whole land of Judea, a type of the whole earth, shall be filled with the knowledge of God.

Geba — The north boundary of the land. Rimmon — The south boundary of Judea. Jerusalem — Which taken mystically, is the church of Christ, and by the repair of all to this Jerusalem, is shadowed out of the compleat building of the church on all sides, north, south, west and east. Lifted up — Raised out of the dust. Benjamin's gate — Benjamin's gate north — east, corner — gate north — west; Hananiel's tower south, wine — presses north; that is in brief, compleatly around the city. |
