Zacarías 12
Nueva Traducción BibliaTodo (NTBT) · Español
1 Profecía de la palabra de Jehová acerca de Israel. Declara Jehová, que extiende los cielos, pone los cimientos de la tierra y forma el espíritu del ser humano dentro de él: 2 «Voy a hacer de Jerusalén una copa que haga tambalear a todos los pueblos de alrededor. También sobre Judá recaerá cuando se sitie Jerusalén. 3 Aquel día haré de Jerusalén una piedra pesada para todos los pueblos. Todos los que intenten levantarla quedarán gravemente heridos; todas las naciones de la tierra se reunirán contra ella. 4 Aquel día —declara Jehová— heriré de pánico a todo caballo y de locura a su jinete. Abriré mis ojos sobre la casa de Judá, pero heriré de ceguera a todos los caballos de los pueblos. 5 Los jefes de Judá dirán en su corazón: “Los habitantes de Jerusalén son mi fuerza por Jehová de los ejércitos, su Dios”. 6 Aquel día haré de los jefes de Judá un brasero encendido entre la leña, una antorcha de fuego entre las gavillas. Consumirán a derecha e izquierda a todos los pueblos de alrededor; Jerusalén volverá a estar habitada en su lugar, en Jerusalén. 7 Jehová salvará primero las tiendas de Judá, para que la gloria de la casa de David y la gloria de los habitantes de Jerusalén no se engrandezcan sobre Judá. 8 Aquel día Jehová protegerá a los habitantes de Jerusalén. Aquel día el más débil entre ellos será como David, y la casa de David será como Dios, como el ángel de Jehová delante de ellos. 9 Aquel día procuraré destruir a todas las naciones que vengan contra Jerusalén. 10 Derramaré sobre la casa de David y sobre los habitantes de Jerusalén un espíritu de gracia y de súplica. Mirarán a mí, a quien traspasaron, y harán duelo por él como se hace duelo por un hijo único; llorarán amargamente por él como se llora por el primogénito. 11 Aquel día será grande el duelo en Jerusalén, como el duelo de Hadad-rimón en el valle de Meguido. 12 La tierra hará duelo, cada familia por separado: la familia de la casa de David por separado y sus mujeres por separado; la familia de la casa de Natán por separado y sus mujeres por separado; 13 la familia de la casa de Leví por separado y sus mujeres por separado; la familia de Simei por separado y sus mujeres por separado; 14 todas las familias restantes, cada familia por separado y sus mujeres por separado».

Zacarías 12:1
Introduction
The first part of this chapter, with several passages in chap. 14, relates to an invasion that shall be made on the inhabitants of Judea and Jerusalem in the latter ages of the world, some time after the restoration and settlement of the Jews in their own land. It also describes, in very magnificent terms, the signal interposition of God in their favor. From this the prophet proceeds in the latter part of the chapter, Zac 14:10-14, to describe the spiritual mercies of God to converting his people; and gives a very pathetic and affecting account of the deep sorrow of that people, when brought to a sense of their great sin in crucifying the Messiah, comparing it to the sorrow of a parent for his first-born and only son, or to the lamentations made for Josiah in the valley of Megiddon, 2Chr 35:24, 2Chr 35:25. A deep, retired sorrow, which will render the mourners for a season insensible to all the comforts and enjoyments of the most endearing society.
Verse 1
The burden of the word of the Lord - This is a new prophecy. It is directed both to Israel and Judah, though Israel alone is mentioned in this verse.
Which stretcheth forth the heavens - See on Isa 42:5 (note).
Formeth the spirit of man within him - Then it is not the same substance with his body. It is a Spirit within Him.
Zacarías 12:2
Verse 2
Jerusalem a cup of trembling - The Babylonians, who captivated and ruined the Jews, shall in their turn be ruined.
I incline to think that what is spoken in this chapter about the Jews and Jerusalem, belongs to the "glory of the latter times."
Shall be in the siege - This may refer to some war against the Church of Christ, such as that mentioned Rev 20:9.
Zacarías 12:3
Verse 3
A burdensome stone - Probably referring to that stone which was thrown on the breast of a culprit adjudged to lose his life by stoning, by which the whole region of the thorax, heart, lungs, liver, etc., was broken to pieces.
Zacarías 12:4
Verse 4
I will smite every horse - Some apply this to the wars of the Maccabees with the Syrians; but it is more likely to be a prophecy not yet accomplished. The terms are too strong for such petty and evanescent victories as those of the Maccabees.
Zacarías 12:5
Verse 5
The governors of Judah - This supposes a union between the two kingdoms of Israel and Judah.
Zacarías 12:6
Verse 6
Jerusalem shall be inhabited again - This seems to refer to the future conversion of the Jews, and their "return to their own land."
Zacarías 12:7
Verse 7
The Lord also shall save the tents of Judah first - This, I suppose, refers to the same thing. The Gospel of Christ shall go from the least to the greatest. Eminent men are not the first that are called; the poor have the Gospel preached to them. And this is done in the wise providence of God, that the "glory of the house of David," etc., that secular influence may appear to have no hand in the matter; and that God does not send his Gospel to a great man, because he is such.
Zacarías 12:8
Verse 8
He that is feeble among them - shall be as David - Here is a marked difference between Judaism and Christianity. So clear, full, and efficient shall be the salvation of believers under the Gospel that the feeblest among them shall be as strong, as full of courage, and as successful as David when he went against Goliath. The least in the kingdom of heaven was greater than John the Baptist.
And the house of David - as the angel of the Lord - The family the Church of the true David, the Lord Jesus, shall be as the angel of the Lord; shall stand in the Divine presence like Gabriel; for Christ hath said, "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God." So "we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed from glory into glory, as by the Spirit of the Lord." Thus the house of David, the true Christians, shall here walk with, after, and before God.
Zacarías 12:9
Verse 9
I will seek to destroy all the nations - When this time shall arrive, all nations that "will not receive the faith of our Lord Jesus" shall be destroyed, when the longsuffering of God shall no longer wait upon them. This seems to belong to a period yet very remote.
Zacarías 12:10
Verse 10
I will pour upon the house of David - This is the way in which the Jews themselves shall be brought into the Christian Church.
1. "They shall have the spirit of grace," God will show them that he yet bears favor to them.
2. They shall be excited to fervent and continual prayer for the restoration of the Divine favor.
3. Christ shall be preached unto them; and they shall look upon and believe in him whom they pierced, whom they crucified at Jerusalem.
4. This shall produce deep and sincere repentance; they shall mourn, and be in bitterness of soul, to think that they had crucified the Lord of life and glory, and so long continued to contradict and blaspheme, since that time.
Zacarías 12:11
Verse 11
A great mourning - A universal repentance.
As the mourning of Hadadrimmon - They shall mourn as deeply for the crucified Christ as their forefathers did for the death of Josiah, who was slain at Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon. See 2Chr 35:24, 2Chr 35:25.
Zacarías 12:12-14
Verse 12
Every family apart - The meaning of the word apart, which recurs here so often, may be this: Their sorrow shall be so deep and distressing, that every one will endeavor to avoid another, and vent his grief and distress of soul in private. And even husbands and wives shall separate from each other in this general mourning, as they were obliged to do by law in certain circumstances. See 1Cor 7:5 (note), and the note there.
