Zechariah 12 prophesies future deliverance of Jerusalem, the defeat of its enemies and the spiritual restoration of God’s people. “I am going to make Jerusalem a cup that sends all the surrounding people reeling!… I will make Jerusalem an immovable rock… I will keep a watchful eye over Judah but I will blind all the horses of the nations… the leaders of Judah then will be saying in their hearts – the people of Jerusalem are strong because the Lord Almighty is their God… the leaders of Judah will consume all the surrounding peoples but Jerusalem will remain intact… the Lord will shield those who live in Jerusalem”.
