Who Was The Angel Of The Lord? (Zechariah 's story. Part 2)

"Then I looked up, and there was  before me a man with a measuring line in his hand. I asked him, 'Where are you going?' He answered me, 'To Jerusalem. To find out how wide and long it is.' While the angel that was speaking to me was leaving, another angel came to meet him and said to him, 'Run, tell that young man, Jerusalem will be a city without walls because of the great number of people and animals in it. And I myself will be a wall of fire around it,' declares the Lord, 'and I will be its glory within.'

'Come, Come! Flee from the land of the north,' declares the Lord, 'for I have scattered you to the four winds of heaven,' declares the Lord.

'Come Zion! Escape, you who live in Daughter Babylon.' For this is what the Lord Almighty says: 'After the Glorious One has sent me against the nations that have plundered you-for whoever touches you touches the apple of his eye-I will surely raise my hand against them so that their slaves will plunder them. Then you will know that the Lord Almighty has sent me.

Shout and be glad, Daughter Zion. For I am coming, and I will live among you,' declares the Lord.  Many nations will be joined with the Lord in that day and will become my people. I will live among you and you will know that the Lord Almighty has sent me to you. The Lord will inherit Judah as his portion in the promise land and will again choose Jerusalem. Be still before the Lord, all mankind, because he has roused himself from his holy dwelling.' ..Zechariah 2:1-13

What do we make of these first chapters in Zechariah? To be sure they are some is prophecies But what do they mean. Come back and next time and we will try to make some sense out of them  (if possible) before we go on to the Chapter 3.


Thanks for coming friends. I am sorry that I was unable to get here the last couple of days. I am feeling somewhat better and hope to be here tomorrow. Take care and God bless!
