Zechariah 11:6 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

For I will no more pity: their great sins have turned away God's compassions from them, and men show no mercy where God withdraws his. The inhabitants; the generality of the nation, the body of this sinful people. I will deliver the men every one into his neighbour's hand; leave to a turbulent, cruel, seditious, and fraudulent temper one against another, to make parties against each other, to rob, imprison, banish, or kill each other, as in the latter times of their state it is known they did. Into the hand of his king; the Roman Caesar, called here the Jews king, for that they had chosen him to be so. Or else the head of the faction. They shall smite the land; their king and his armies shall destroy the land: it may point to Vespasian and Titus, who sacked Jerusalem, burnt the temple, captivated ninety-seven thousand persons, and slew six hundred thousand at least, though Josephus reckons eleven hundred thousand. Out of their hand I will not deliver them; they shall never more be by my hand delivered, or I will cast them off for ever; and so their captivity under the Romans continueth to this day.
