Zechariah 4:5

_ _ Knowest thou not, etc. — Not a reproof of his ignorance, but a stimulus to reflection on the mystery.

_ _ No, my lord — ingenious confession of ignorance; as a little child he casts himself for instruction at the feet of the Lord.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Zechariah 4:1-10.
