Zechariah 9:1 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

Hadrach — This is the name of a city in Celosyria, and here signifies the country also. It was not far from Damascus. The rest thereof — This burden shall lie long as well as heavy on Damascus. Towards the Lord — For as all men's appeals in cases of wrong are to heaven, so they who have been wronged by Syrian injustice, look to heaven for right.

Zechariah 9:1

1 The burden of the word of the LORD in the land of Hadrach, and Damascus shall be the rest thereof: when the eyes of man, as of all the tribes of Israel, shall be toward the LORD.
