Zechariah 9
Judgment is pronounced upon the nations and places round about Palestine. The conjunction of verses 8 and 13 seems to point to Alexander the Great, who fulfilled the judgments pronounced on Damascus, Tire, Sidon, Philistina, but who, warned of God in a dream, passed by Jerusalem without harming it, though the future holds within it the larger fulfillment.
All works to the time when the King shall come, just and having salvation, lowly and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass. Jerusalem had her opportunity of receiving her Messiah in this way. Refusing, the fulfillment awaits a future and a glorious day.
