Zechariah 5:5

Context
Vision Seven: The Ephah

5:5 After this the angelic messenger 1  who had been speaking to me went out and said, “Look, see what is leaving.”

Zechariah 6:8

Context
6:8 Then he cried out to me, “Look! The ones going to the northland have brought me 2  peace about the northland.” 3 

1 tn See the note on the expression “angelic messenger” in 1:9.

2 tn Heb “my spirit.” The subject appears to be the Lord who exclaims here that the horsemen have accomplished their task of bringing peace.

3 sn The immediate referent of peace about the northland is to the peace brought by Persia’s conquest of Babylonia, a peace that allowed the restoration of the Jewish people (cf. 2 Chr 36:22-23; Isa 44:28; 45:1-2). However, there is also an eschatological dimension, referring to a time when there will be perfect and universal peace.
