Zechariah 6:12
_ _ Behold, the man — namely, shall arise. Pilate unconsciously spake God’s will concerning Him, “Behold the man” (John 19:5). The sense here is, “Behold in Joshua a remarkable shadowing forth of Messiah.” It is not for his own sake that the crown is placed on him, but as type of Messiah about to be at once king and priest. Joshua could not individually be crowned king, not being of the royal line of David, but only in his representative character.
_ _ Branch — (See on Zechariah 3:8; Isaiah 4:2; Jeremiah 23:5; Jeremiah 33:15).
_ _ he shall grow up out of his place — retaining the image of a “Branch”; “He shall sprout up from His place,” that is, the place peculiar to Him: not merely from Beth-lehem or Nazareth, but by His own power, without man’s aid, in His miraculous conception [Henderson]; a sense brought out in the original, “from under Himself,” or “from (of) Himself” [Calvin]. Moore makes it refer to His growing lowly in His place of obscurity, “as a tender plant and a root out of a dry ground” (Isaiah 53:2), for thirty years unknown except as the son of a carpenter. Maurer translates, “Under Him there shall be growth (in the Church).” English Version accords better with the Hebrew (compare Exodus 10:23). The idea in a Branch is that Christ’s glory is growing, not yet fully manifested as a full-grown tree. Therefore men reject Him now.
_ _ build the temple — The promise of the future true building of the spiritual temple by Messiah (Matthew 16:18; 1 Corinthians 3:17; 2 Corinthians 6:16; Ephesians 2:20-22; Hebrews 3:3) is an earnest to assure the Jews, that the material temple will be built by Joshua and Zerubbabel, in spite of all seeming obstacles. It also raises their thoughts beyond the material to the spiritual temple, and also to the future glorious temple, to be reared in Israel under Messiah’s superintendence (Ezekiel 40:1-43:27). The repetition of the same clause (Zechariah 6:13) gives emphasis to the statement as to Messiah’s work. |
Zechariah 6:12
Unto him — Joshua, but in the hearing of others. Whose name is the Branch — Whom you know by the name of the Branch, who was called so long since. Thou, O Joshua art the portrait, he is the Branch itself. Out of his place — Of the tribe and family, and in the place foretold. He shall build — He it is, though unseen, that stands by you, who build the material temple, far inferior to the spiritual temple, which Christ will build, preserve, and dwell in for ever. |
Zechariah 6:12
And speak to him, saying, Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Behold the man whose name [is] The (n) BRANCH; and he shall grow (o) up out of his place, and he shall (p) build the temple of the LORD:
(n) Meaning Christ, of whom Joshua was the figure: for in Greek they were both called Jesus.
(o) That is, of himself without the help of man.
(p) Which declares that no one could build this temple of which Haggai speaks, but only Christ: and therefore it was spiritual, and not material; (Haggai 2:9). |
