Contextual Overview
1 And the angell that talked with me, came againe, and waked me, as a man that is raysed out of his sleepe, 2 And saide vnto me: what seest thou? And I saide: I haue loked, and beholde, a candelsticke all of golde, with a boule vpon it, and his seuen lampes therein, & vpon euery lampe seuen pypes. 3 And two olyue trees thereby: one vpon the right side of the boule, & the other vpon the left side. 4 So I aunswered, and spake to the angell that talked with me, saying, O my Lorde, what are these? 5 The angell that talked with me aunswered and saide vnto me: Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No my Lorde. 6 He aunswered and saide vnto me: This is the worde of the Lorde vnto Zorobabel, saying, Neither through an hoast of men, nor through strength: but through my spirite, saith the Lorde of hoastes. 7 What art thou great mountaine before Zorobabel? thou must be made euen, and he shall bring foorth the head stone therof, with showtinges, crying, Grace grace vnto it. 8 Moreouer, the word of the Lord came vnto me, saying: 9 The handes of Zorobabel haue layde the foundation of this house, his hands shal also finishe it: and thou shalt knowe that the Lorde of hoastes hath sent me vnto you. 10 For who hath despised the day of small thinges? they shall reioyce, and shall see the stone of tynne in the hande of Zorobabel: these seuen are the eyes of the lord, which go through ye whole worlde.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Then the angel that talked with me answered and said unto me,.... Either to upbraid him with his ignorance and stupidity; or rather to quicken his attention, and that of others, to the interpretation of it he was about to give him:
Knowest thou not what these be? art thou ignorant of the design of them? or knowest thou not what is meant by them?
and I said, No, my lord; he made an ingenuous confession of his ignorance, joined with great respect unto, and veneration of, the angel that conversed with him.
