TSNTyndale Study Notes:

1:78 the morning light from heaven is about to break upon us: The Messiah is identified in the Old Testament as a light shining in darkness (Isa 9:2; 42:6-7; 49:6; Mal 4:2).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἀνατολὴ ἐξ ὕψους

/the/_rising from height

Zechariah speaks of the coming of the Savior as if it will be a sunrise that will light up the earth. Alternate translation: “the Savior who comes from God”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

ἐξ ὕψους

from height

Zechariah uses the term on high to refer to God by association, since the abode of God if considered to be far above us in heaven. Alternate translation: “from God”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

ἐπισκέψεται ἡμᾶς

/will_be/_visiting us

As in 1:68, visit is an idiom. Alternate translation: “will come to help us”
