Isaiah  Zechariah

Isaiah chapter 19 and the book of Zechariah.

^1.1The burden of Mizraim: ^1.2The Master is riding on swift clouds ^1.3and comes into Mizraim I Nahum 1:3 ^1.4and the idols of Mizraim will be moved at his presence ^1.5and the heart of the Mizraim will melt in the middle of it. Isaiah 19:1^2.1I will stir up Mizraim against Mizraim ^2.2and they will fight each against his brother ^2.3and each against his neighbor, ^2.4city against city ^2.5and kingdom against kingdom. ^3.1The spirit of the Mizraim will fail in its middle ^3.2and I will blot out their counsel ^3.3and they will inquire from the idols and from the magi ^3.4and from those who have familiar spirits and from the wizards. ^4.1I will deliver the Mizraim ^4.2into the hands of the cruel masters ^4.3and a fierce king will rule over them, ^4.4says the Master of Hosts. Isaiah 19:2-4^5.1They will cut off the water from the sea ^5.2and the river will be wasted and dried up. I Nahum 1:4 ^6.1They will divert the waters of the rivers ^6.2and will diminish the great rivers. ^6.3The reeds and rushes and papyrus will wither. ^7.1The rushes by the river ^7.2and by the mouth of the river ^7.3and everything sown by the river ^7.4will wither and be driven away and not be anymore. I Nahum 1:4 ^8.1The fishermen will also lament ^8.2and all who cast hooks into the river will mourn ^8.3and those who spread nets on the water ^8.4will languish. ^9.1Those who work in cotton and those who comb cotton and weave with joy ^9.2will be confounded. ^10.1All those who make strong drink for the drinking of the people ^10.2will be humiliated. Isaiah 19:5-10^11.1Surely the princes of Zoan have become fools. ^11.2The wise counsellors of king pharaoh give foolish counsel. ^11.3How can you say to pharaoh, ^11.4We are wise men ^11.5and the children of the ancient kings? I Nahum 1:11 Isaiah 19:11^12.1Where are your wise men? ^12.2Let them tell you now and let them know ^12.3what the Master of Hosts ^12.4has purposed against Mizraim. ^13.1The princes of Zoan have become fools. ^13.2The princes of Noph have become haughty ^13.3and have deceived Mizraim, ^13.4even the foundation of her families. ^14.1The Master has mingled ^14.2a spirit of deceit inside her ^14.3and it has caused the Mizraim to err in all his works ^14.4as a drunk man staggers in his vomit. I Nahum 1:10 ^15.1There will not be a man of the Mizraim ^15.2who can make head or tail of it, nor tail or head. Isaiah 19:12-15¹⁶In that day the Mizraim will be like a woman and he will be afraid and quake because of the size of the hand of the Master of Hosts which he lifts against him. ¹⁷The land of Judah will be a terror to the Mizraim. Everyone who makes mention of it will be filled with dread because of the counsel of the Master of Hosts which he has determined against the Mizraim. Isaiah 19:16-17¹⁸In that day there will be 5 cities in the land of Mizraim which speak the language of Canaan and swear by the Master of Hosts. 1 of them will be called, Haris, the city of destruction. Isaiah 19:18¹⁹In that day there will be an altar to the Master in the middle of the land of Mizraim and a monument to the Master at its border. ²⁰It will be for a sign and for a witness to the Master of Hosts in the land of Mizraim, for they will cry to the Master because of the oppressors and he will send them a savior and a judge and he will deliver them. Isaiah 19:19-20²¹The Master will be known to the Mizraim and the Mizraim will know the Master in that day and will offer sacrifices and oblations. Yes, they will vow a vow to the Master and perform it. ²²The Master will strike the Mizraim. He will strike and heal them and they will return to the Master and he will answer them and will heal them. Isaiah 19:21-22²³In that day there will be a highway from Mizraim to Assyria and from Assyria to Mizraim and the Assyrians will come into Mizraim and the Mizraim into Assyria and the Mizraim will serve the Assyrians. Isaiah 19:23²⁴In that day Israel will be the 3rd with Mizraim and with Assyria, even a blessing in the middle of the land, ²⁵whom the Master of Hosts will bless saying, Blessed be Mizraim my people and Assyria the work of my hands and Israel my heritage. Isaiah 19:24-25

(Isaiah 19 BRB)

Isaiah covers Zechariah from your king comes through the return from Assyria and Egypt.

^9.1Rejoice greatly daughter of Zion. ^9.2Shout daughter of Jerusalem. ^9.3Your king comes to you. ^9.4He is righteous and a savior, ^9.5lowly and riding on a donkey, ^9.6on a colt, the foal of a donkey. Q Matthew 21:5 Q John 12:15 ^10.1He will cut off the chariot from Ephraim ^10.2and the horse from Jerusalem, ^10.3and the bow will be broken in the battle. ^10.4He will speak peace to the peoples ^10.5and his dominion will be from sea even to sea ^10.6and from the river even to the ends of the land. Zechariah 9:9-13

(Zechariah 9:9-10 BRB)

Isaiah says Yahvah will stir up Egyptian against Egyptian. This matches Yahvah setting Zion against Greece.

^11.1As for you, by the blood of your contract ^11.2you have also set free the captives out of the pit in which is no water. ^12.1Live in the stronghold prisoners of hope; ^12.2I will repay double for a day's work. ^13.1For I have bent my bow over Judah ^13.2and filled my bow over Ephraim, ^13.3and I have set your children Zion ^13.4against your children Greece, ^13.5and made Jerusalem like the sword of a mighty man. ^14.1The Master will be seen over the enemy ^14.2and his arrow will go forth as the lightning ^14.3and the Master of Masters will sound on the trumpet, ^14.4and will go in the whirlwind to the south. ^15.1The Master of Hosts will defend them; ^15.2and they will devour, ^15.3and subdue with sling stones; ^15.4and they will drink trouble like wine; ^15.5and they will be filled like a bowl, ^15.6and as the corners of the altar. ^16.1The Master their God will save them in that day ^16.2as the flock of his people; ^16.3for they were holy stones ^16.4cast on his land. ^17.1How good and how excellent is wheat for the young men, ^17.2and wine makes the maids cheerful. Zechariah 9:14-17

(Zechariah 9:11-17 BRB)

Isaiah says Yahvah will diminish the rivers and the reeds will wither. This matches Yahvah giving rain to make the grass grow. Isaiah also says the princes of Zoan have become fools. This matches the learned men speaking iniquity.

^1.1Ask the Master for rain in the season of latter rain ^1.2and the Master will make gentle showers ^1.3and give you the early rain ^1.4which causes the grass to grow in the field. ^2.1For the learned men have spoken iniquity ^2.2and the diviners have seen a lie ^2.3and have told false dreams. ^2.4They comfort in vain, ^2.5therefore the people went their way like sheep. ^2.6They were humbled because they had no shepherd. Zechariah 10:1-2

(Zechariah 10:1-2 BRB)

Isaiah says the Egyptian will be like a woman. This matches Judah and Joseph becoming mighty men.

^3.1My anger is raging against the shepherds ^3.2and I will punish the sheep, ^3.3for the Master of Hosts has visited ^3.4his sheep, the house of Judah, ^3.5and has made them as a splendid horse in the battle. ^4.1Of them will come the cornerstone ^4.2and of them the nail ^4.3and of them the battle bow ^4.4and of them all their rulers as 1. ^5.1They will be like mighty men ^5.2who tread mire in the streets in the battle. ^5.3They will fight because the Master is with them ^5.4and the riders on horses will be confounded. Zechariah 10:3-5^6.1I will strengthen the house of Judah ^6.2and the house of Joseph I will save ^6.3and I will bring them back again, ^6.4for I will have mercy on them ^6.5and they will be as though ^6.6I had not forgotten them ^6.7for I am the Master God ^6.8and will answer them. ^7.1They will become like the mighty men of Ephraim ^7.2and their hearts will rejoice as with wine, ^7.3yes, their sons will see it and be glad ^7.4and their hearts will rejoice in the Master. Zechariah 10:6-12

(Zechariah 10:3-7 BRB)

Isaiah says there will be a highway between Egypt and Assyria. This matches Yahvah bringing his people back to their land from Egypt and Assyria.

^8.1I will whistle for them ^8.2and gather them, ^8.3for I will save them ^8.4and they will increase as they were before increased. ^9.1I will scatter them among the peoples, ^9.2yet they will praise me in far countries ^9.3they will rear their sons ^9.4and return again. ^10.1I will bring them back from the land of Mizraim ^10.2and gather them out of Assyria ^10.3and I will bring them back to the land of Gilead and Lebanon ^10.4and the lands will not be enough for them. ^11.1They will pass through the sea of affliction ^11.2and he will turn back the waves in the sea ^11.3and all the depths of the river will dry up ^11.4and the pride of Assyria will cease ^11.5and the government of Mizraim will pass away. ^12.1I will strengthen them in the Master ^12.2and they will preach the good news of his name, says the Master.
