Then said I, O my lord, what are these? And the angel that talked with me said unto me, I will shew thee what these be.
The angel that talked with me - not the "man upon the red horse among the myrtle trees," as is evident from the tenth verse, where He (the Divine Angel) is distinguished from the "angel that talked with me" [hamal`aak hadobeer (H1696) biy (H871a) - the phrase used of him, Zechariah 1:13-14; Zechariah 2:3; Zechariah 4:1; Zechariah 4:4-5; Zechariah 5:5; Zechariah 5:10; Zechariah 6:4] - i:e., the interpreting angel. The Hebrew х biy (H871a)] for "with me," or 'in me' (Numbers 12:8, "with him will I speak" - literally, 'in him will I speak') implies internal, intimate communication: 'the angel that spake within me' (Jerome). [So, en (G1722) profeetais (G4396), Hebrews 1:1, "God, who ... spake by" - literally, 'IN the prophets;' 1 Peter 1:11, "the Spirit of Christ which was IN them"].
I will show thee - reveal to thy mental vision.
