Contextual Overview

1 Beholde, the day of the Lorde commeth, and thy spoyle shalbe deuided in the middest of thee. 2 For I wyll gather together all the heathen to fight against Hierusalem, so that the citie shalbe wonne, the houses spoyled, and the women defiled: the halfe of the citie shall go away into captiuitie, and the residue of the people shal not be caryed out of the citie. 3 After that, shall the Lorde go foorth to fight against those heathen, as men vse to fight in the day of battaile. 4 Then shall his feete stand vpon the mount Oliuet that lyeth vpon the east side of Hierusalem, and the mount Oliuet shall cleaue in two eastwarde and westwarde, so that there shalbe a great valley: and the halfe mount shal remoue toward the north, & the other towarde the south. 5 And ye shall flee vnto the valley of my hylles, for the valley of the hylles shall reache vnto Asal: yea, flee shall ye lyke as ye fled for the earthquake in the dayes of Oziah king of Iuda: and the Lorde my God shall come, and all the sainctes with him. 6 In that day shall there be no cleare light, but darke. 7 This shalbe that speciall day which is knowen vnto the Lorde, neither day nor night: but about the euening time it shalbe light.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Behold, the day of the Lord cometh,.... Or the day when the Lord will come, both in his spiritual and personal reign; for this is not to be understood of his first coming in the flesh, at which time none of the things after mentioned happened; nor of his coming to take vengeance on the Jews; but rather of his coming to convert them:

and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee; not the substance of the nations, divided by the Israelites in the midst of Jerusalem, as the Targum and Jarchi interpret it; but the spoil of Jerusalem, when taken by the enemy, as is after said, which should be divided by them with great joy and triumph, in the midst of it: this refers not to the spoil of Jerusalem by Antiochus or the Romans, but to the slaying of the witnesses, and the triumph of their enemies over them, Revelation 11:7 or else to the spoil and prey the Turks will come to Jerusalem for, when it shall begin the possession of the Jews; and who perhaps at first will have some success; see Ezekiel 38:12.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Behold the Day of the Lord cometh - Literally, “a day cometh, the Lord’s,” in which He Himself shall be Judge, and no longer leave man to fulfill his own will, and despise God’s; in which His glory and holiness and the righteousness of all His ways shall be revealed.

And thy spoil shall be in the midst of thee - Jerome: “How great will the strait be, that the spoils should be divided in the midst of her. It often happens that what, by a sudden assault, is plundered in the city, is divided in the field or in solitude, lest the enemy should come upon them. But now there will be such a heavy weight of ills, such will be the security of conquest, that the spoils shall be divided in the midst of the city.”

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER XIV

The commencement of this chapter relates to the destruction of

Jerusalem by the Romans, and to the calamities consequent on

that event. From this great Jewish tragedy the prophet

immediately passes to the utter extermination of the enemies of

Christianity in the latter days.

God will display his power in behalf of his people in a manner

so astonishing and miraculous, that even they themselves, and

much more their enemies, shall be struck with terror, 4, 5.

The national prosperity of the Jews shall then be permanent and

unmixed, 6, 7;

and these people shall be made the instruments of converting

many to the faith of the Messiah, 8, 9.

The great increase and prosperity of the Christian Church, the

New Jerusalem, is then described in terms accommodated to

Jewish ideas; and the most signal vengeance denounced against

all her enemies, 10-19.

From that happy period God's name will be honoured in every

thing, and his worship every where most reverently observe,

20, 21.

NOTES ON CHAP. XIV

Verse Zechariah 14:1. Behold, the day of the Lord cometh — This appears to be a prediction of that war in which Jerusalem was finally destroyed, and the Jews scattered all over the face of the earth; and of the effects produced by it.
