John Trapp on Zechariah 12:7

Verſe 7. The Lord alſo ſhall ſave the tents of Judah firſt] Or as at firſt, ſc. when they came out of Egypt, and had no ſtrong holds to take to for their defence. Lord, (ſaith Moſes,) thou haſt been our dwelling-place in all generations Pſal. 90.1. He was ſo of old, and ever will be: the faith whereof made the fathers well content to dwell in tents Heb. 11.13. and thoſe holy Rechabites Ier. 35.7, 8. till Nebuchadnezzar came up into the land ver. 11. But here God promiſeth to deliver thoſe Jews that dwelt in the open fields, without the city; and then afterwards to deliver Ieruſalem it ſelf from the rage of the Antiochi; and ſo he did (1 Maccab.) in a wonderfull manner: they were helped indeed with a little help Dan. 11.34. to take away boaſting; as it followeth.

that the glory of the houſe of David &c.] that is, the glorious houſe of David, and the glorious inhabitants of Ieruſalem, by an Hypallage. Non eſt glorioſior populus ſub coelo, quam Judaicus. Alſt. Chron. There is not a more vainglorious people under heaven then the Jews are ſaith Alſted. They were ſo of old Ioh. 8.33. Mat. 3.9. Spaniards are ſaid to be impudent braggers: and extremely proud in the loweſt ebb of fortune; ſo are the Jews. But God will teach them better things, and make him that glorieth glory in the Lord 1 Cor. 1.31.
