• Chapter 14 gives the details, to speak generally, of the result for the nations of the coming of Jehovah as the Messiah (see verses 9-16); but, when more closely examined, it is seen to fall into two parts, the first of which closes with “Uzziah king of Judah” in the fifth verse. From that point the prophet returns and describes the coming of Jehovah with His saints, and in so doing “takes up the subject of the relationship of Jehovah with the whole earth.” (“Zechariah 14” by E. Dennett)
• The “day of the Lord” has a fixed significance in the prophets, and is ever connected with judgment. (“Zechariah 14” by E. Dennett)
• The “spoil” spoken of is probably the spoil taken from the nations (see verse 14). (“Zechariah 14” by E. Dennett)
