The Inner Meaning of the Prophets and Psalms # 246
246. Internal Meaning of Zechariah, Chapter 14
1-5 The Lord's combats against the wicked, and their dispersion. (7)
6-7 Then there will be no truth, but in the Lord there will be Divine truth. (3, 12)
8-9 Then Divine truth will proceed from the Lord. (12)
10-11 Truth will be multiplied in the new church, and no falsity of evil will be there. (12)
12 He who fights against those truths, will plunge into falsities of every kind. (3)
13-15 Then follows the destruction of the church. (3)
16-19 Then they will draw near to the worship of the Lord, even those from the nations who are external natural. (11, 9)
20-21 Then from the good of charity, from which proceeds worship, there will be intelligence. (11)
Zechariah 14:1-5
1
Behold, a day of Yahweh comes, when your spoil will be divided in your midst.
2
For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city will be taken, the houses rifled, and the women ravished. Half of the city will go out into captivity, and the rest of the people will not be cut off from the city.
3
Then Yahweh will go out and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.
4
His feet will stand in that day on the Mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east; and the Mount of Olives will be split in two, from east to west, making a very great valley. Half of the mountain will move toward the north, and half of it toward the south.
5
You shall flee by the valley of my mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach to Azel; yes, you shall flee, just like you fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. Yahweh my God will come, and all the holy ones with you.
