Zechariah 14:20,21 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

In that day shall there be upon the bells of the horses, HOLINESS UNTO THE LORD; and the pots in the Lord's house shall be like the bowls before the altar. 21 Yea, every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah shall be Holiness unto the Lord of hosts: and all they that sacrifice shall come and take of them, and seethe therein: and in that day there shall be no more the Canaanite in the house of the Lord of hosts.

As in the kingdom of grace, the glorious King, and High Priest of Zion, hath made all his redeemed Kings and Priests to God and the Father; holiness unto the Lord shall be even upon the bells of the horses, as well as upon the mitre of his people. Christ is the holiness of his people, and therefore all, and everything in his kingdom is made holy in him. By the Canaanite being destroyed out of the land, is meant everything that is unclean, or that loveth, or maketh a lie. Revelation 21:27. The term Canaanite is evidently made use of to imply this, for the kingdom of Canaan itself hath been destroyed time immemorial; so that it would be nothing new to say, there should be no more the Canaanite in the house of the Lord, for that hath long since ceased. But, the sense is, everything shall be holy, in the holiness of Jesus, and the Church of Christ in the earth is delivered from all corruption. Oh! blessed period! Oh! dearly to be longed for hour! Lord, hasten it! Thy kingdom come!
