• The headstone is connected with the completion of the building; the foundation-stone had long since been laid (see Ezra 3:15; 4:24; 5:1) and hence the promise refers to the conclusion of the work, which should be accompanied by the joy of the people, and their acknowledgment in their joy that grace, Jehovah’s favor, had accomplished all. (“Zechariah 4” by E. Dennett)
