TTN Tyndale Theme Notes:

The Return of God’s Presence with His People

The descriptions of the Exile include the tragedy that, as part of his judgment, God withdrew his presence from his people and from the holy city of Jerusalem. This notion is perhaps most clearly demonstrated in a vision of the prophet Ezekiel, who saw a visual depiction of God’s glorious presence leaving the Temple (Ezek 10:1-22; 11:22-23). As such, when the prophets discussed the future restoration of God’s people and their return to the land, they also often spoke of the return of God’s presence (see, e.g., Isa 52:7-8; Ezek 43:1-9).

The prophet Zechariah placed a strong emphasis on this theme of the Lord returning to his people. He was certain that God would once again live among them and that the glory of the Lord would rest in Jerusalem (1:16; 2:5, 10-11; 8:3, 23). God’s presence would return with the rebuilding of the Temple, and Israel would experience spiritual restoration and renewed agricultural bounty (1:17; 4:8-9; 6:15; see also Hag 2:19). In the future, God’s presence would rescue Jerusalem and the people of Israel from enemy nations. The Lord would be enthroned as King over all the earth, and the whole earth would worship the one true God (Zech 9:16; 10:6; 12:9; 14:9). In both the present and the future, the return of the Lord’s presence to Jerusalem was connected with the enabling work of God’s Spirit (4:6; 12:10; see also Hag 2:5).

Zechariah’s promise of the Lord’s presence in Jerusalem anticipated the coming of Jesus the Messiah and the awesome mystery of the Word of God becoming human and living on earth among us (John 1:14).

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

(Occurrence 0) Sing for joy, daughter of Zion

(Some words not found in UHB: listen listen and,flee from,land north declares YHWH that/for/because/then/when like,four winds the=heavens scattered DOM,you_all declares YHWH )

“Zion” is the same as “Jerusalem.” The prophet speaks of the city as if it is a daughter. Zechariah personifies the city as a person who can sing. Alternate translation: “Sing for joy, Zion”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person

(Occurrence 0) this is Yahweh’s declaration

(Some words not found in UHB: listen listen and,flee from,land north declares YHWH that/for/because/then/when like,four winds the=heavens scattered DOM,you_all declares YHWH )

Yahweh speaks of himself by name to express the certainty of what he is declaring. See how you translated this in Zechariah 1:4. Alternate translation: “this is what Yahweh has declared” or “this is what I, Yahweh, have declared”
