John Trapp on Zechariah 12:4

Verſe 4.Turk. Hiſt. I will ſmite every horſe with aſtoniſhment] Great is the ſtrength of the horſe and the rage of his rider: Jehu marched furiouſly; Bajazet the great Turk, of his fierce and furious riding, was ſurnamed Gilderun or Lightening; But God can make the Egyptians to appear men, and not Gods, and their horſes fleſh, and not ſpirit: When the Lord ſhall but ſtretch out his hand. (and that's no hard matter of motion) both he that helpeth ſhall fall, and he that is holpen ſhall fall down, and they ſhall all faile together Eſay 31.3. See Pſal. 76.5, 6.Pſal. 33.17. An horſe is a vain thing for ſafety, though a warlike creature full of terrour; but ſafety or victory is of the Lord Pro. 21.31. In nothing be terrified, ſaith the Apoſtle Philip. 1.28. The Greek word is a metaphor from horſes when they tremble and are ſore affrighted: as it fell out in the Philiſtines army, when the Angels made a buſtle among the mulbery-trees 2 Sam. 5.24. in the Syrians army, when the Angels likewiſe made an hurry-noiſe in the ayre, of charrets, of horſes, and of a great hoſt 2 King. 7.6. in the army of Sennacherib, when at Gods ſole rebuke both the charret and horſe were caſt into a dead ſleep Pſal. 76.6. Laſtly in the German wars againſt Ziſca and the Huſſites in Bohemia: where God ſmot every horſe with aſtoniſhment, and his rider with madneſſe;Parei Meduè, hiſt. Profan. pag. 785. ſuch a panick terrour ſeized upon the enemies of the truth, though they came in with three potent armies at once, that they ſled before ever they looked the enemy in the face. How this Propheſie was litterally fulfilled to the Maccabees, ſee 2 Mac. 10.30.

and I will open mine eyes upon the houſe of Judah] who before ſeemed to wink, or to be aſleep. Now will I awake, ſaith the Lord, Now will I ariſe, Iſa. 33.10. now will I lift up my ſelf, for the relief and reſcue of my poor people: and that becauſe they called them outcaſts, ſaying, This is Zion whom no man looketh after Ier. 30.17.
