Matthew Poole and continuators on Zechariah 12:7

7 The LORD also shall save the tents of Judah first , that the glory of the house of David , and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem do not magnifie themselves against Judah.

Rescue from the power and rage of the Antiochus's; nay, subdue their Armies, and put them to flight before the Iews

The unfenced places, the open Countrey, the Shepherd-like Cottages, or Tents of Iudah.

Before he saveth Ierusalem, before he put Jerusalem into arms, or bring her Inhabitants into the field, to fight, and help the Countrey, and its Inhabitants; first the weaker are saved next the stronger.

That the illustrious house of David, and so the glorious Citizens of Ierusalem.

Boast of their Power, Policy, Courage, and forwardness, and how much Iudah owed to these for their deliverance: This would exasperate Iudah, and provoke God, who would do all this, so that all might magnifie their God, none think greatly of themselves.
