Gill's Notes on the Bible
Behold, the day of the Lord cometh,.... Or the day when the Lord will come, both in his spiritual and personal reign; for this is not to be understood of his first coming in the flesh, at which time none of the things after mentioned happened; nor of his coming to take vengeance on the Jews; but rather of his coming to convert them:
and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee; not the substance of the nations, divided by the Israelites in the midst of Jerusalem, as the Targum and Jarchi interpret it; but the spoil of Jerusalem, when taken by the enemy, as is after said, which should be divided by them with great joy and triumph, in the midst of it: this refers not to the spoil of Jerusalem by Antiochus or the Romans, but to the slaying of the witnesses, and the triumph of their enemies over them, Revelation 11:7 or else to the spoil and prey the Turks will come to Jerusalem for, when it shall begin the possession of the Jews; and who perhaps at first will have some success; see Ezekiel 38:12.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Behold the Day of the Lord cometh - Literally, “a day cometh, the Lord’s,” in which He Himself shall be Judge, and no longer leave man to fulfill his own will, and despise God’s; in which His glory and holiness and the righteousness of all His ways shall be revealed.
And thy spoil shall be in the midst of thee - Jerome: “How great will the strait be, that the spoils should be divided in the midst of her. It often happens that what, by a sudden assault, is plundered in the city, is divided in the field or in solitude, lest the enemy should come upon them. But now there will be such a heavy weight of ills, such will be the security of conquest, that the spoils shall be divided in the midst of the city.”
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
CHAPTER XIV
The commencement of this chapter relates to the destruction of
Jerusalem by the Romans, and to the calamities consequent on
that event. From this great Jewish tragedy the prophet
immediately passes to the utter extermination of the enemies of
Christianity in the latter days.
God will display his power in behalf of his people in a manner
so astonishing and miraculous, that even they themselves, and
much more their enemies, shall be struck with terror, 4, 5.
The national prosperity of the Jews shall then be permanent and
unmixed, 6, 7;
and these people shall be made the instruments of converting
many to the faith of the Messiah, 8, 9.
The great increase and prosperity of the Christian Church, the
New Jerusalem, is then described in terms accommodated to
Jewish ideas; and the most signal vengeance denounced against
all her enemies, 10-19.
From that happy period God's name will be honoured in every
thing, and his worship every where most reverently observe,
20, 21.
NOTES ON CHAP. XIV
Verse Zechariah 14:1. Behold, the day of the Lord cometh — This appears to be a prediction of that war in which Jerusalem was finally destroyed, and the Jews scattered all over the face of the earth; and of the effects produced by it.
