Zechariah9:16
16. save them ... as the flock of his people--as the flock of His people ought to be saved (Psa 77:20). Here the image of war and bloodshed (Zec 9:15) is exchanged for the shepherd and flock, as God will give not only victory, but afterwards safe and lasting peace. In contrast to the worthless sling-stones trodden under foot stand the (gems) "stones of the crown (Is 62:3; Mal 3:17), lifted up as an ensign," that all may flock to the Jewish Church (Is 11:10, 12; 62:10).
