1 Vision of the High Priest Then he showed me Ezra 5:2; Hag. 1:1; Zech. 6:11 Joshua the high priest standing before the Angel of the Lord , and 1 Chr. 21:1; Job 1:6; Ps. 109:6; (Rev. 12:9, 10) Satan standing at his right hand to oppose him.
2 And the Lord said to Satan, Mark 9:25; (Jude 9) “The Lord rebuke you, Satan! The Lord who (Rom. 8:33) has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you! Amos 4:11; Jude 23 Is this not a brand plucked from the fire?”
3 Now Joshua was clothed with Ezra 9:15; Is. 64:6 filthy garments, and was standing before the Angel.
4 Then He answered and spoke to those who stood before Him, saying, “Take away the filthy garments from him.” And to him He said, “See, I have removed your iniquity from you, Gen. 3:21; Is. 61:10 and I will clothe you with rich robes.”
5 And I said, “Let them put a clean Ex. 29:6 turban on his head.” So they put a clean turban on his head, and they put the clothes on him. And the Angel of the Lord stood by.
6 The Coming Branch Then the Angel of the Lord admonished Joshua, saying,
7 “Thus says the Lord of hosts: ‘If you will walk in My ways, And if you will Lev. 8:35; Ezek. 44:16 keep My command, Then you shall also Deut. 17:9, 12 judge My house, And likewise have charge of My courts; I will give you places to walk Among these who Zech. 3:4 stand here.
8 ‘Hear, O Joshua, the high priest, You and your companions who sit before you, For they are Ps. 71:7 a wondrous sign; For behold, I am bringing forth Is. 42:1 My Servant the Is. 11:1; 53:2; Jer. 23:5; 33:15; Zech. 6:12 BRANCH.
9 For behold, the stone That I have laid before Joshua: (Zech. 4:10; Rev. 5:6) Upon the stone are Ps. 118:22 seven eyes. Behold, I will engrave its inscription,’ Says the Lord of hosts, ‘And Jer. 31:34; 50:20; Zech. 3:4 I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day.
10 Zech. 2:11 In that day,’ says the Lord of hosts, ‘Everyone will invite his neighbor 1 Kin. 4:25; Is. 36:16; Mic. 4:4 Under his vine and under his fig tree.’ ”
