Commentary on Zechariah 2:7

Theological / Devotional

Deliver thyself O Zion. Or, “escape to Zion” (RSV). It was God’s purpose to visit judgments upon those nations that held His people captive. See on v. 6.

Daughter of Babylon. The same phrase appears in Ps. 137:8. Compare the expression “daughter of Zion” (Isa. 52:2; Lam. 4:22; Zech. 2:10).
