SEV Biblia, Chapter 12:6
En aquel día pondré los capitanes de Judá como un brasero de fuego entre leña, y como una antorcha de fuego entre gavillas; y consumirán a diestra y a siniestra todos los pueblos alrededor; y Jerusalén será otra vez habitada en su lugar, en Jerusalén.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Zechariah 12:6
Verse 6. Jerusalem shall be inhabited again] This seems to refer to the future conversion of the Jews, and their "return to their own land.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 6. In that day will I make the governors of Judah like a hearth of fire among the wood , etc.] As a large hearth of fire, with wood all about it, devours and consumes it; so shall the governors of Judah be to the nations that shall come up against Jerusalem. The Targum renders it, “as a garment of fire among wood:” and like a torch of fire in a sheaf ; of wheat, which presently destroys it; (see Obidiah 1:18): and they shall devour all the people round about, on the right hand and on the left ; on the south and on the north, as the Targum interprets it. The phrase denotes the utter destruction of the people on all sides: and Jerusalem shall be inhabited again in her own place, [even] in Jerusalem ; upon that very spot of ground which was formerly called Jerusalem shall the city be built again, and inhabited; and shall continue, notwithstanding the attempts of all the nations of the earth to destroy it; (see Jeremiah 30:18).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-8 - Here is a Divine prediction, which will be a heavy burden to all the enemies of the church. But it is for Israel; for their comfort an benefit. It is promised that God will make foolish the counsels, an weaken the courage of the enemies of the church. The exact meaning is not clear; but God often begins by calling the poor and despised; an in that day even the feeblest will resemble David, and be as eminent i courage and every thing good. Desirable indeed is it that the example and labours of Christians should render them as fire among wood, as torch in a sheaf, to kindle the flame of Divine love, to sprea religion on the right hand and on the left.
