Zechariah 14:17 - Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Of all the families of the earth— If, according to the opinion of many learned commentators, by going up to Jerusalem to worship, and to keep the feast of tabernacles, be only meant a conformity to the worship of the one true God, or, which is the same thing, to the Christian religion, there can be no objection to understanding a strict universality of the nations: for it is repeatedly foretold, that a time will come, when "all the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the Lord, and all the families of the nations shall worship before him," Psalms 22:27. Compare Psalms 72:11; Psalms 86:9. Revelation 11:15.

Zechariah 14:17

17 And it shall be, that whoso will not come up of all the families of the earth unto Jerusalem to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, even upon them shall be no rain.
