Zechariah 3
1. Under the type of Joshua, the high priest, receiving clean garments,
6. and a covenant of promise,
8. Christ the Branch and Cornerstone is promised.














On that day
This phrase is often used in prophetic literature to denote a future time of fulfillment, a day of divine intervention or blessing. In the context of Zechariah, it points to a messianic age, a time when God's promises will be fully realized. The Hebrew term "yom" (day) can signify a literal day or an era, emphasizing the certainty and divine timing of God's plan.

each of you
This phrase indicates inclusivity and personal involvement. The prophecy is not just for a select few but for all who are part of God's covenant community. It underscores the personal nature of God's promises and the communal aspect of His blessings.

will invite his neighbor
The act of inviting a neighbor suggests hospitality, peace, and fellowship. In ancient Near Eastern culture, sharing a meal or inviting someone to one's home was a sign of friendship and reconciliation. This phrase implies a future time of harmony and unity among God's people, reflecting the peace that the Messiah will bring.

to sit under his vine and under his fig tree
This imagery is rich with symbolism. The vine and fig tree represent prosperity, security, and peace. In ancient Israel, these plants were common symbols of a settled and blessed life (1 Kings 4:25, Micah 4:4). The phrase suggests a return to Edenic conditions, where there is no fear or want, and each person enjoys the fruits of their labor in peace.

declares the LORD of Hosts
This title for God emphasizes His sovereignty and power. "LORD of Hosts" (Yahweh Sabaoth) is a military term, portraying God as the commander of heavenly armies. It assures the reader of the certainty of the prophecy, as it is backed by the authority and might of God Himself. This declaration is a divine guarantee that the promised peace and prosperity will come to pass.

Verse 10. - Shall ye call every man his neighbour, etc. In this cleansed and purified kingdom shall be found peace, happiness, and plenty, recalling the prosperous days of Solomon (1 Kings 4:25). (For a similar picture of prosperity, see Micah 4:4, and note there.) This is fulfilled in Christ, who says to his true disciples, "Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you" (John 14:27). Dr. Wright notes, "We are told in the Talmud ('Yoma,' 7:4) that when, on the great Day of Atonement, the high priest had performed the various duties of that solemn day, he was escorted home in a festive manner, and was accustomed to give a festal entertainment to his friends. The maidens and youths of the people went forth to their gardens and vineyards with songs and dances; social entertainments took place on all sides, and universal gladness closed the festival of that solemn day."
