Zechariah 7:12
_ _ hearts ... adamant — (Ezekiel 3:9; Ezekiel 11:19).
_ _ Lord ... sent in Spirit by ... prophets — that is, sent by the former prophets inspired with His Spirit.
_ _ therefore ... great wrath — (2 Chronicles 36:16). As they pushed from them the yoke of obedience, God laid on them the yoke of oppression. As they made their heart hard as adamant, God brake their hard hearts with judgments. Hard hearts must expect hard treatment. The harder the stone, the harder the blow of the hammer to break it. |

In his spirit — By his holy spirit. |

(m) Which declares that they did not only rebel against the Prophets, but against the Spirit of God that spoke in them. |
