(3:1-5) Zechariah sees Joshua in filthy clothes standing next to Satan, hanging out with God and an angel. The angel
said to take off Joshua's dirty clothes and Zechariah said to put a mitre on his head. So that's what they did.
(3:1) "He shewed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the
LORD, and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him."
(3:2) "The LORD said unto Satan, The LORD rebuke thee, O Satan."
(3:3) "Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and stood before the angel."
(3:4) "He answered and spake unto those that stood before him, saying, Take
away the filthy garments from him."
3:1
And he shewed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the
LORD, and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him.
3:2
And the LORD said unto Satan,
The LORD rebuke thee, O Satan; even the LORD
that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee: is not this a brand plucked out of
the fire?
3:3
Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and stood before the angel.
3:4
And he answered and spake unto those that stood before him, saying, Take
away the filthy garments from him. And unto him he said, Behold, I have
caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with change
of raiment.
3:5
And I said, Let them set a fair mitre upon his head. So they set a fair
mitre upon his head, and clothed him with garments. And the angel of the
LORD stood by.
(3:5) "I said, Let them set a fair mitre upon his head. So they set a fair
mitre upon his head, and clothed him with garments."
3:6
And the angel of the LORD protested unto Joshua, saying,
(3:7-10) God said he would bring forth his servant BRANCH because the stone that God laid before Joshua had seven eyes. And
anyway, someday people will call their neighbors under fig trees.
(3:7-8) "Thus saith the LORD ... I will bring forth my servant the BRANCH.
3:7Thus saith the LORD of hosts; If thou wilt walk in my ways, and if thou
wilt keep my charge, then thou shalt also judge my house, and shalt also
keep my courts, and I will give thee places to walk among these that stand
by.
3:8
Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, thou, and thy fellows that sit before
thee: for they are men wondered at: for, behold, I will bring forth my
servant the BRANCH.
3:9
For behold the stone that I have laid before Joshua; upon one stone shall
be seven eyes: behold, I will engrave the graving thereof, saith the LORD of
hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day.
(3:9) "For, behold, the stone that I have laid before Joshua; upon one stone shall be seven eyes."
3:10In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall ye call every man his
neighbour under the vine and under the fig tree.
(3:10) "In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall ye call every man his
neighbour under the vine and under the fig tree."
