Zechariah 1:5 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Your fathers, where are they? but where are your disobedient fathers? Are they not buried in a strange land? Did they not die of those diseases? Were they not consumed with famine and the sword, as was menaced against them? And the prophets: some apply this to the false prophets who promised peace, but where are they now? But it is better understood of the true prophets, who died as others; they do not nor must live always to warn you.

Zechariah 1:5

5 Your fathers, where are they? and the prophets, do they live for ever?
