This is a verse with reference to the Lord Jesus Christ. He was priced in his hands by His own. The modern versions make a mockery here
concerning the crucifixion of Jesus Christ.
Notice the Message (MSG) translation below. All your commentaries make mentioned of His
pirced hands not His chest, body, back and arms. |

He was sold for the price of a
slave (Zech. 11:12; Matt. 27:3 10). The result: He was wounded in the house of
His friends (Zech. 13:6) and pierced on the
cross (Zech. 12:10). What a tragedy that the "City of
Peace" should reject her "Prince of Peace" and crucify Him. Warren W. Wiersbe,

Acts 1:11. Christ's coming and

is All About, JFB -type of Messiah, condemned as
a false prophet, and pierced with “wounds between His
hands.” Thus the transition to the direct
prophecy of Him (Zec_13:7) is natural, which it would not be
if He were not indirectly and in type alluded to. wounded in ... house of my friends
— an implied admission that he had pretended to
prophecy, and that his friends had wounded him for it
in zeal for God (Zec_13:3). The Holy Spirit in
Zechariah alludes indirectly to Messiah, the
Antitype, wounded by those whom He came to befriend, who
ought to have been His “friends,” who were His
kinsmen (compare Zec_13:3, as to the false
prophet’s friends, with Mar_3:21, “His friends,” Margin,
“kinsmen”; Joh_7:5; “His own,” Joh_1:11; the Jews, “of
whom as concerning the flesh He came,”
Rom_9:5), but who wounded Him by the agency of the
Romans (Zec_12:10). MH - Some good interpreters,
observing how soon this comes after the mention of
Christ's being pierced, think that these are the words of that
great prophet, not of the false prophet spoken of before.
Christ was wounded in his hands, when they
were nailed to the cross, and, after his
resurrection, he had the marks of these wounds; and here he tells
how he came by them; he received them as a false
prophet, for the chief priests called him a
deceiver, and upon that account would have him crucified;
but he received them in the house of his friends -
the Jews, who should have been his friends; for he came
to his own, and, though they were his bitter
enemies, yet he was pleased to call them his friends,
as he did Judas (Friend, wherefore hast thou
come?) because they forwarded his sufferings for him;
as he called Peter Satan - an adversary, because he
dissuaded him from them. Barnes - The most literal
interpretation, then, of the wounds in the hands harmonizes with the piercing
before, and the smiting of the Good Shepherd which follows, of whom David too
prophesied, “They pierced My Hands and My Feet” Psa_22:16. “What are those wounds on Thy hands? How
long, think you, and how and by whom will this be said to Him? For ever and ever, unceasingly, and with unspeakable
admiration it will be said, both by God the Father, “to whom He was obedient
unto death, the death of the Cross” Phi_2:8 : it
will be said also both by the holy “angels” who “desire to look into” Him
1Pe_1:12, and by people whom He has redeemed. O great miracle, wonderful
spectacle, especially in the Lord of all, to bear wounds in the midst of His
Hands! And He shall say; “With these I was wounded in the house of those who
loved Me.” O great sacrilege, sacrilegious homicide, that such wounds were inflicted in the house of those who loved. He will
not say, ‘with these I was wounded by those who loved Me,’ but ‘in the house
of those who loved Me.’ For they who inflicted them, loved Him not. Let me repeat that the day is
coming when the Lord Jesus Christ is going to make Himself known unto His
brethren, the Jews. When He came the first time, "he came unto his own,
and his own received him not" (John 1:11). In fact, they delivered Him
up to be crucified. But when He comes the second time, He will make Himself
known to His own people. "And one shall say unto him, What are these
wounds in thine hands? Then he shall answer, Those
with which I was wounded in the house of my friends" (Zech. 13:6).
Christ will make Himself known to His brethren. And "in that day there
shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of
Jerusalem for sin and for uncleanness" (Zech. 13:1). It will be a family
affair between the Lord Jesus and His brethren. The episode of Joseph
revealing himself to his brothers gives us a little inkling of how wonderful
that day of Christ's revelation will be. Joseph is so charged with emotion
that he can't contain himself. In the house of Pharaoh they can hear the
weeping. They can't understand what is happening over at Joseph's house. J. Vernon McGee, Thru The Bible
with J. Vernon McGee Christ's Sufferings, Zechariah
13:6 Frank Charles Thompson, Thompson
Chain Reference Bible 13:2-6 This chapter pictures the
final days of the earth as we know it. For God's new era to begin, there must be a cleansing—all evil must be
abolished. Therefore, idols will be banished, and false prophets will be
ashamed of themselves and no longer try to deceive
God's people.13:7 Just before his arrest, Jesus quoted from this verse,
referring to himself and his disciples (Matthew 26:31, 32). He knew beforehand
that his disciples would scatter when he was arrested. The Roman
"sword" was the military power that put Christ to death. Life Application Study Bible Zechariah's Messianic insight: He
predicted that Christ would enter Jerusalem triumphantly on a colt (Zec. 9:9), that he would be sold for thiry
pieces of silver (Zec. 11:12), that his blood would
open up a "fountain" in the House of David "for sin and for
uncleanness" (Zec. 13:1), that his wounds
would be inflicted in the house of his friends (Zec.
13:6) ("He came unto his own, and his own received him not,"Jn. 1:11). In a glorious foreview
Zechariah parts the curtain and shows the Savior in his triumphant arrival on
the Mount of Olives (Zec. 14:4). Howard A. Hanke,
The Thompson Chain Reference Bible Companion You have but to study "Moses
and the prophets" to find how clearly those holy men, who spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost, saw the
sufferings of Christ and the glory that would follow (Gen. 3:15; 22:18; Isa.
50:6; 53:3-12; Dan. 9:24-26; Zech. 6:12, 13; 13:6, 7; Mal. 3:1-3). James Smith, – Handfuls on
Purpose, (Grand Rapids, MI: Wm. B. Eerdmans, 1945),
WORDsearch CROSS e-book, 840. 5. His Second Coming. "His
feet shall stand on the Mount of Olives (chap. 14:3, 4). Notice that this is
after He had been pierced and wounded in the house of His friends (Jews)
(chap. 13:6). James Smith, – Handfuls on Purpose His Cross in His hands. And one
shall say unto Him: "What are these wounds in Thine
hands?" (chap. 13:6). Ah, these wounds are the
marks of His identity with the Man who was nailed to a Cross, of whom their
fathers cried, "Let Him be crucified." Shall that be the time
"when a nation shall be born in a day?" Something like this happens
when a sin-smitten soul gets its first look of Jesus as their sin-bearer. He
died for me. My sins were there at the nailing of Christ to the tree. The
wounds in His hands, even in His glorified body (John 20:20) will remain
through all Eternity, as a witness to the triumphs of His death. James Smith, – Handfuls on Purpose Brethren, observe that Christ so
loved the sheep that he gave his life. 'What are these wounds in thy hands?
... These are the wounds I have received in the house of my friends'
Zechariah 13:6. Brethren, if ever you and I get to
heaven, this is what we will see, 'A Lamb as it had been slain' Revelation
5:6. Are you attracted by the sight? What are you made of, that you do not
see this love? O brethren, to whom will you go if not to him? Observe what he
offers — himself. 'I am the good shepherd, the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep', that is, I am willing to
give myself to you. A Treasury of Great Preaching, |
