The church celebrating her incredible return out of captivity4. Prays for and prophesies the good success thereof He who goes out weeping The phrase begins with a vivid image of sorrow and distress. The Hebrew root for "weeping" is "בָּכָה" (bakah), which conveys a deep, heartfelt lamentation. In the historical context of ancient Israel, this could reflect the sorrow of the Israelites during their captivity or times of national distress. The act of going out weeping suggests a journey or a task undertaken despite personal grief, symbolizing the perseverance of faith even in times of hardship. bearing a trail of seed will surely return with songs of joy carrying sheaves with him "He shall walk, and walk and weep, Bearing the handful of seed: He shall come, and come with singing, Bearing his sheaves," where we must certainly see an extension and not a mere repetition of the former figure, for the very form of the expression suggests the long patient labour of the sower, and the reward which patience and perseverance always bring--a harvest in proportion to the toil and trouble of seed-time. The words of the prophet Haggai (Haggai 1:10-11; Haggai 2:19), contemporary with the Return, should be compared. The word rendered "precious" in the Authorised Version may be correctly represented by "handful." Its meaning is "drawing;" and from Amos 9:13 (see margin) we see that the sower was called "the drawer of seed," no doubt from the hand being repeatedly drawn out for the cast from the bag or basket containing the seed. Others render "seed-basket" here. The contrast so beautifully painted in this verse was certainly realised when "the priests and Levites, and the rest of the children of the captivity, kept the dedication of the house of God with joy" (Ezra 6:16; comp. Ezra 6:22; Nehemiah 12:42). . . . Verse 6. - He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed; literally, going he goes and weeping; i.e. weeping every step as he goes - "bearing the draught of seed," i.e. the seed which he has drawn forth from his bag, and is about to scatter on the earth. Thus it is that he "goes forth." How differently does he return! He shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him; literally, coming he comes with a cry of joy, bearing with him his sheaves. He obtains in the end an ample return for all his labors.
