Zechariah 10
1. God is to be sought unto, and not idols.
3. As he visited his flock for sin, so he will save and restore them.














I will bring them back
This phrase signifies God's promise of restoration and redemption. The Hebrew root for "bring back" is "שׁוּב" (shuv), which means to return or restore. This reflects God's covenant faithfulness and His commitment to His people, emphasizing His role as a redeemer who actively intervenes in history to fulfill His promises.

from the land of Egypt
Egypt is historically significant as the place of Israel's bondage and subsequent deliverance. Mentioning Egypt here evokes memories of the Exodus, symbolizing liberation from oppression. It serves as a reminder of God's past deliverance and His power to rescue His people from any form of captivity.

and gather them from Assyria
Assyria represents another historical oppressor of Israel. The Hebrew word for "gather" is "קָבַץ" (qavats), which implies a careful and intentional collection. This gathering from Assyria signifies God's ability to reclaim His people from dispersion and exile, highlighting His sovereignty over nations and His protective nature.

I will bring them to the land of Gilead and Lebanon
Gilead and Lebanon are regions known for their fertility and beauty. Gilead, east of the Jordan River, was known for its balm, a healing ointment, while Lebanon was famous for its majestic cedars. This promise of return to these lands symbolizes restoration to a place of abundance and blessing, reflecting God's desire to provide for and nurture His people.

until no more room is found for them
This phrase indicates an overwhelming blessing and prosperity. The imagery of having no more room suggests a population so vast that it exceeds the land's capacity, echoing the Abrahamic promise of descendants as numerous as the stars. It underscores God's abundant provision and the overflowing nature of His blessings when His people are restored to their rightful place.

Verse 10. - Egypt... Assyria. It is certain that there was a large body of Jews in Egypt at this time (Jeremiah 43:6, 7); and to Assyria the ten tribes, who are here specially mentioned under the name Ephraim, had been deported. Besides this, Assyria is often used loosely for Western Asia or Babylonia, of which, after its submission, it formed a most important feature (see 2 Kings 23:29; Ezra 6:22; and in the Apocrypha, 1 Esdr. 7:15; Judith 1:7 Judith 2:1). In the 'Oracula Sibyllina,' the Assyrians are continually confused with Persians, Babylonians, and other Eastern nations. Egypt and Assyria are here used as types of the countries to which Jews had been banished (comp. Hosea 11:11). Gilead and Lebanon. A designation of the northern district of Palestine, on both sides of the Jordan, in which these tribes had been originally settled. This region had been most exposed to hostile attacks, and was the first to be depopulated. Place shall not be found for them (Isaiah 49:20). Josephus testifies to the teeming population of Galilee in later times ('Bell. Jud.,' 2:03, 1; 3:3, 2; 4:1, 2; 7:5). Septuagint, "There shall not even one of them be left behind," i.e. in exile.
