John Trapp on Zechariah 1:9

Verſe 9. [illegible: 1 letter]alvin. Then ſaid I, O my Lord what are theſe?] Thus the Prophets enquired and ſearched diligently (as ſaith Saint, Peter, 11 Epiſt. 1.11.) for the truth of things, [non-Latin text not transcribed]. as hunters ſeek for game, and as men ſeek for gold, in the very mines of the earth: who not content with the firſt oar that offereth it ſelf to their view, dig deeper, and deeper, till they are owners of the whole treaſure. See Prov. 2.4. and reſt not, till ye ſee that bliſſefull ſight, Epheſ. 1.18, 19.

and the Angel that talked with me,] Or, in me, as the Vulgar rendreth it. This was ſome created Angel, who might reveal things to the Prophet by working on the phantaſie, and ſpirit, by way of information and inſtruction, as Dan. 9.21. Luk. 1.11. Apoc. 1.1.

I will ſhew thee what theſe be] How ready are the holy Angels to ſerve the Saints, Heb. 1.14. rejoycing more in their names of office then of honour, of employment, then preferment, to be called Angels (that is, Meſſengers, or Internuntio's) then Principalities, Thrones, Dominions, Epheſ. 1.20. accounting it. better to do good, then to be great, to diſpenſe Gods benefits, then to enjoy them. Hence they are with, and about the Saints, as their companions, guides, protectours, monitours, and rulers of their actions, as here.
