Narrator: Chris Genthree
Duration: 1min
Zechariah 12:12
Listen from:
Zechariah 12:12. And the land shall mourn, every family apart; the family of the house of David apart, and their wives apart.
According to the Jewish custom, not only did the men and women dwell in separate apartments, but they also worshiped separately. In this text, the trouble that is to come upon the land is so great that every family shall be in mourning, the men mourning by themselves, and the women in like manner lamenting together.
