• “He shall build the temple of the Lord.” In this way the faith of Joshua, and the remnant whom he represented, would be encouraged. They were laboring to erect a house for Jehovah amid the desolations of the once beautiful Jerusalem; and the Lord directs them to look upon their work as the promise of a time, which should eclipse the glory of the past far more than the past overshadowed the present, when Messiah Himself should build the temple. (“Zechariah 6” by E. Dennett)

• The time, however, will come when the Jews, restored to their own land, will in their unbelief — unbelief as to Jesus being their Messiah — build another temple; for it is found existing and associated with wickedness. (See Isa. 66:6; Matt. 24:15.) This temple will also be destroyed (Dan. 8:1) and thus the way is prepared for the advent of the Messiah in His kingdom, when He will fulfill the prediction here given through Zechariah. (“Zechariah 6” by E. Dennett)

• Already He has glorified Him there with the glory which He had with the Father before the world was; and very soon He will display Him in that glory on the earth, and then it is that He will execute the decree already promulgated: “Thou art My Son; this day have I begotten thee.” And He will do this in connection with establishing Him as king upon His holy hill of Zion, where the accomplishment of these words, “He shall bear the glory,” will be verified, the glory of God in the earth, as already bears it in heaven. (“Zechariah 6” by E. Dennett)

• He shall be a priest upon His throne — the true Melchizedek — King of Righteousness, and also King of Peace — the two characters foreshadowed by David and Solomon, and together with these ever maintaining the place and office of the Priest on behalf of His people. (See Psa. 110.) (“Zechariah 6” by E. Dennett)

• The counsel of peace shall be between Him and Jehovah; and this, as the result of His bearing the glory, and, governing according to God’s perfect standard, the expression in His government of the character and ways of God. (“Zechariah 6” by E. Dennett)
