Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

2 Timothy 2:15 KJV

Book of Zechariah (Chapter 6)

 

Zech 6:1-15 
1 And I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came four chariots out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of brass. 


These are four means/methods of carrying forth 'hidden dynasties' from between two mountains of brass. 
These "
mountains of brass" speaks of two filthy, corrupt nations/governments/kingdoms. 
Are these two nations/governments/kingdoms specifically named? No. 
So, of what are these "
two mountains" (mountains of brass)? 

These do not necessarily have to speak of two earthly nations/governments, but rather two evil systems. 
These "
four chariots" are not sent forth from the earth, but unto the earth of this dimension / age. 

We can see this in the definition of "
brass". Now, we have need to go to the very root of this word in order to fully understand that which it conveys. 

"

[Brown-Driver-Briggs' definition] 


Horse. 
Horses are mentioned often in the Bible. But they were of little importance to the average Hebrew, who found it more practical to keep a donkey to ride or an ox to pull the plow. Horses were traded for food when money failed during a famine in Egypt <Gen. 47:17>. Some kings used swift horses rather than camels to carry messages <Esth. 8:10,14>. But for the most part, Hebrews thought of horses in terms of war. 
Pharaoh's horses and chariots pursued when Moses led the Israelites out of Egypt <Ex. 14:9>. Their Canaanite enemies met them with many horses and chariots, but they still fell before the Israelites <Josh. 11:4-9>.
Repeatedly God warned the Hebrews not to place their faith in the strength and speed of horses <Ps. 20:7> or to "multiply" horses <Deut. 17:16>. 
In spite of these warnings, David and Solomon did multiply horses, even importing them from other countries.
Solomon had a sizeable cavalry as well as horses to draw war chariots. 
The prophet Jeremiah used the word stallion in speaking of horses <Jer. 8:16; 47:3; 50:11>, (RSV). He warned the nation of Judah that it would fall to a conquering army that would be riding prancing stallions. He also used the symbol of a "well-fed, lusty stallion" <Jer. 5:8>, (NKJV) to describe the idolatry and unfaithfulness of God's people. 
The New Testament tells of the "Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse," who ride out to ravage the earth in the end times <Rev. 6:1-8>. But even more dramatic than this is the entrance of a white horse bearing the "King of kings and Lord of lords" <Rev. 19:11-16>.

Zech 6: 
2 In the first chariot were red horses; and in the second chariot black horses; 
3 And in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot grisled and bay horses. 


Let us look at these as they were written in the Interlinear: 
In the first chariot horses red. 
And in chariot the second horses black. 
And in chariot the third horses white. 
And in chariot the fourth horses grisled bay. 

Remember the "
horses" spoken of in Zechariah 1? 
Zech 1:8-10 
8 I saw by night, and behold a man riding upon a red horse, and he stood among the myrtle trees that were in the bottom; and behind him were there red horses, speckled, and white. 
9 Then said I, O my lord, what are these? And the angel that talked with me said unto me, I will shew thee what these be. 
10 And the man that stood among the myrtle trees answered and said, These are they whom the LORD hath sent to walk to and fro through the earth. (KJV) 


Note the addition of the "
black horses" which pull the chariot (hidden dynasty) of the Economy. 
We can see this in Revelations. 

Rev 6:5 
5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand. (KJV) 


Please also consider that 'economy' speaks not only of 'monetary systems', but refers also to that which is or is not equitable unto YHVH'S Word. 

Also, note that "
grisled bay" (not grisled and bay, not two separate colors, but a spotted, strong red color) is the same as "speckled" as we saw in chapter 1 of Zechariah. 

Now, do these "
horses" in Zechariah 6 align with those spoken of in Revelations? 

Rev 6:1-8 
1 And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see. 
2 And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer. 
3 And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see. 
4 And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword. 
5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand. 
6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine. 
7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see. 
8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth. (KJV) 


Revelations 6 speaks of the one "
white horse", the one "red horse", the one "black horse". 
These speak of these 'hidden' dynasties as the world is set up for these in advance  and then, are utilized during the time of the 'one world' order when Satan's spurious government arrives and is set up by the ten spurious 'kings' (fallen angels disguised as  kings of old). 

In Revelations, we see the "
pale horse" when he arrives. And, this one "pale horse" is "Death" which is a name for Satan. Then, following with him is the remainder of "Hell", the remainder of those within the pit. 
The "
pale horse" speaks of a color that is likened unto 'pale greenish/yellow'. 
The color 'green' speaks of that which is 'living', yet Satan's color is pale because he yet alive but dead. 
And, the 'yellow' is a dirty white, for Satan shall never be clean/pure again. 

In Zechariah 6, we can see that these "
horses" are at least two in number, if not more. 
So, although these "
horses" are associated with their corresponding "horse" in Revelations, they  are not occurring within the exact same events. 

Zech 6: 
4 Then I answered and said unto the angel that talked with me, What are these, my lord? 


Now, let us discover that which these "
horses" in Zechariah 6 are bringing about. 

Zech 6: 
5 And the angel answered and said unto me, These are the four spirits of the heavens, which go forth from standing before the Lord of all the earth. 
6 The black horses which are therein go forth into the north country; and the white go forth after them; and the grisled go forth toward the south country. 
7 And the bay went forth, and sought to go that they might walk to and fro through the earth: and he said, Get you hence, walk to and fro through the earth. So they walked to and fro through the earth. 


"
These are the four spirits
These are only spirits at this time, and not, therefore, actual/physical entities in the sight of flesh man. 
FATHER has sent them forth to bring about that which HE has planned. It is a part of the chastisement that FATHER has promised would come upon the world. 

Now, where did these horses go? Who are they going to stir up and influence? 
"
The black horses which are therein go forth into the north country
Again, what is this "
north country"? 
It is the 'land' of 'darkness and deception'. 
So, the spirits which shall effect the dynasty of the economy goes unto those who spiritually dwell in darkness and deception. 
"
and the white go forth after them
Remember, these are evil spirits. 
The evil spirits "
white horses" (religion, but false religion) follow in after the economy has been influenced by the "black horses". 

Now, we are going to see these "
speckled" horses, spoken of in chapter 1, separated. 
So, these "
grisled bay" horses (who had been mixed) shall be separated for this which they shall accomplish in the earth. 

"
and the grisled go forth toward the south country
These 'spotted' horses (as if marked by hail) go toward the south. 
Now, again, we are looking at the 'evil spirits'. And, these spotted horses (no specific color) but likened unto 'hail stones' are destructive as they go toward the south. 
The "
south country" speaks of the 'land' of 'one on the right hand of one facing east'. 
In other words, as hail will break down everything with a great force, the people, even those who look to the rising of the sun (day, as opposed to night), shall be directly or indirectly affected by these evil spirits. 

"
And the bay went forth, and sought to go that they might walk to and fro through the earth
And the strong and fleet horses (evil spirits) went forth. 
Why? To assess if the earth was yet at a point that these spurious kings (Satan's government) could make their appearance in the sight of flesh man. 

What was said unto these? "
and he said, Get you hence, walk to and fro through the earth. So they walked to and fro through the earth.

Zech 6: 
8 Then cried he upon me, and spake unto me, saying, Behold, these that go toward the north country have quieted my spirit in the north country. 

These evil spirits, which have gone into the people who are in darkness and deception, have completed their mission of causing most of these people to forget, not know nor look to YHVH or HIS HOLY SPIRIT. 

Zech 6: 
9 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, 
10 Take of them of the captivity, even of Heldai, of Tobijah, and of Jedaiah, which are come from Babylon, and come thou the same day, and go into the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah; 


Take of those of the exile, who have come out of 'bondage', and on the same day, go into "
the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah". 

"Heldai" (worldly) 
An Israelite who brought gold and silver from Babylon to help the exiles who returned to Jerusalem with Zerubbabel <Zech. 6:10>. Heldai is also called Helem <Zech. 6:14>.

"Tobijah" (YHVH is good/Goodness of YAH) 
A Jewish captive from whom the prophet Zechariah received a gift of silver and gold to make an elaborate crown for Joshua the high priest <Zech. 6:10,14>. 
(
from Nelson's Illustrated Bible Dictionary) (Copyright (C) 1986, Thomas Nelson Publishers

"Jedaiah" (YHVH has known) 
One of the returned captives who brought gold and silver from Babylon to Jerusalem for the Temple <Zech.
6:10,14>. 
(

"Josiah" (whom YHVH heals/founded of YAH) 
The name of two men in the Old Testament 
A captive who returned to Jerusalem from Babylon in Zechariah's day <Zech. 6:10>. 
(
from Nelson's Illustrated Bible Dictionary) (Copyright (C) 1986, Thomas Nelson Publishers

"Zephaniah" (YHVH has treasured/YAH has kept secret) 
The name of four men in the Old Testament. 
Father of Josiah <Zech. 6:10>. 
(
from Nelson's Illustrated Bible Dictionary) (Copyright (C) 1986, Thomas Nelson Publishers


Now FATHER is going to use "
Joshua the son of Josedech" as an example of and for YAHSHUA, in that he shall be crowned in a manner likened as YAHSHUA is. 

Zech 6: 
11 Then take silver and gold, and make crowns, and set them upon the head of Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest; 
12 And speak unto him, saying, Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Behold the man whose name is The BRANCH; and he shall grow up out of his place, and he shall build the temple of the LORD: 


Please note that which FATHER has said unto us: 
"
Behold the man whose name is The BRANCH
"
The BRANCH" is YAHSHUA ('Joshua' means: YHVH IS SALVATION...YAH'S SAVIOR). 
The man, individual soul/spirit, Joshua is not The BRANCH, but his name is the name of THE BRANCH, YAHSHUA, JESUS CHRIST. 

13 Even he shall build the temple of the LORD; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and he shall be a priest upon his throne: and the counsel of peace shall be between them both. 

And, YAHSHUA shall build the Temple of The LORD. 
All honor shall be to HIM. 
HE shall be both the KING OF Kings and the PRIEST of Priests/PROPHET of Prophets. 
And, there shall be peace because HE is both. 

14 And the crowns shall be to Helem, and to Tobijah, and to Jedaiah, and to Hen the son of Zephaniah, for a memorial in the temple of the LORD. 

"Hen" 
[hen] (grace)-- a son of Zephaniah <Zech. 6:14>, also called Josiah <Zech. 6:10>. 
(
from Nelson's Illustrated Bible Dictionary) (Copyright (C) 1986, Thomas Nelson Publishers

These four and those they represent shall receive a reward for their goodly acts. 
These "
crowns" are to remind all of their goodly deeds. 

15 And they that are far off shall come and build in the temple of the LORD, and ye shall know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto you. And this shall come to pass, if ye will diligently obey the voice of the LORD your God. (KJV) 

We, in this last generation, are "
far off" (far ahead) in time to the days of the writing of this Book. 
So, even some of this final generation are building in the "
temple of the LORD". 
Do you "
diligently obey the voice of the LORD your God"?
