Gill's Notes on the Bible
The Lord also shall save the tents of Judah first,.... That is, the Jews, who will be in other parts of the land encamped in tents, to defend themselves against their enemies; these will be saved out of the hands of them, before the inhabitants of Jerusalem will be saved; and in such a manner, that it will evidently appear that their salvation is of the Lord: and his end in so doing will be,
that the glory of the house of David, and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, do not magnify [themselves] against Judah; lest the chief of the family of David, and the principal inhabitants of Jerusalem, should glory over their brethren in other parts of Judea; and say it was owing to them that they were saved and delivered out of the hands of their enemies.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The Lord also shall save the tents of Judah first - Still it is, ‘the Lord shall save.’ We have, on the one side, the ‘siege,’ the gathering of all the peoples of the earth ‘against Jerusalem, the horse and his rider.’ On the other, no human strength; not, as before, in the prophecy of the Maccabees, the bow, the arrow, and the sword, though in the hand of God Zechariah 9:13. It is thrice, ‘I will make’ Zechariah 9:2-3,; ‘I will smite’ (Zechariah 9:4 bis); and now, ‘The Lord shall save.’ By ‘the tents,’ he probably indicates their defenselessness. God would ‘save’ them first; that ‘the glory of the house of David - ‘be not great against’ or ‘over Judah,’ may not overshadow it; but all may be as one; for all is the free gift of God, the mere grace of God, that ‘he that glorieth may glory in the Lord’ Jeremiah 9:24; 1 Corinthians 1:31; 2 Corinthians 10:17, and both “may own that, in both, the victory is the Lord’s” (Jerome).
Lap.: “In Christ Jesus is neither Jew nor Greek; neither bond nor free, neither rich nor poor” Galatians 3:28; “but all are one,” namely a new creation; yea in Christendom the poor are the highest, both because Christ “preached to the poor” Luke 4:18, and pronounced the “poor blessed” Luke 6:20, and He made the Apostles, being poor, nobles in His kingdom, through whom He converted kings and princes, as is written, “ye see your calling, brethren, that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble are called, but God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise, and the weak things of the would to confound the things which fire mighty ...” 1 Corinthians 1:26; and, “Hath not God called the poor in this world, rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom, which God has promised to them that love Him?” James 2:5. The rich and noble have greater hindrances to humility and Christian virtues, than the poor. For honors puff up, wealth and delights weaken the mind; wherefore they need greater grace of Christ to burst their bonds than the poor. Wherefore, for the greater grace shown them, they are bound to give greater thanks unto Christ.”
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Zechariah 12:7. The Lord also shall save the tents of Judah first — This, I suppose, refers to the same thing. The Gospel of Christ shall go from the least to the greatest. Eminent men are not the first that are called; the poor have the Gospel preached to them. And this is done in the wise providence of God, that the "glory of the house of David," c., that secular influence may appear to have no hand in the matter and that God does not send his Gospel to a great man, because he is such.
