Zechariah2:1

1 I lift up mine eyes again , and looked and behold a man with a measuring line in his hand .

Zechariah.

This is the third Emblem, or Vision he had seen.

Very diligently, and intently.

One in form of a man, some say 'twas Christ, others say a Type of Nehemiah, it was an Emblem of some Master-builder to be sure, and its probable the Prophet took him for no more than a man.

He appear'd ready and prepar'd to lay out the platform of Jerusalem for extent, form, and beauty.
