Zechariah Prophesies of Judah’s Restoration

Zechariah 14

In the last chapter of his book, the prophet Zechariah describes an apocalypic vision of Judah’s coming restoration. It is not clear whether Zechariah’s vision refers to actual, specific events to come in the future, or whether it expresses a more general hope that one day God will ultimately intervene in history to judge the nations, protect his people, and establish his rule over the world. The vision begins by describing a time of great suffering when all the nations will be gathered for battle against Jerusalem. The city will fall, and half the city will go into exile. Since Zechariah lived after the fall of Jerusalem and the exile of many Judeans to Babylon, this portion of the vision may actually refer to these past events. The vision continues on, describing how the Lord will rise up for those that remain, and he will fight the nations, and the very land itself will be transformed for the Lord’s people. The Lord will stand on the Mount of Olives, just east of Jerusalem, and the mountain will be split in half from east to west, allowing the people of Jerusalem to flee through the new valley to Azal, an uncertain location somewhere east of the city. Living waters will flow out of Jerusalem as well, with half the waters flowing to the Dead Sea (literally, “eastern sea”) and the other half flowing to the Mediterranean Sea (literally, “western sea”). The Lord will become king over all the earth, and the land will become a plain from Geba to Rimmon, essentially the entire land of Judah. It is interesting to note that this restored Judah will once again include the region that was under the rule of the Idumeans (Edomites) at the time of Zechariah. The Edomites had apparently moved northward from Seir into this region while Judah was under attack from Nebuchadnezzar just before the fall of Jerusalem (see Ezekiah 25:12-14; Obadiah 1:1-21; see “Nebuchadnezzar’s Final Campaign against Judah” map). Jerusalem, however, will continue to remain elevated over the surrounding area. The city, which lay in ruins at the time of Zechariah, is described as spanning east to west from the Gate of Benjamin (on the eastern edge of the Temple Mount) to the Old Gate (on the western edge of the Temple Mount) to the Corner Gate (on the far western edge of the city). The city also spanned north to south from the Tower of Hananel to the king’s winepresses, likely near the king’s garden at the southern edge of the city.
