The angle who talked with Zechariah and wakened he, as a man is wakened from his sleep. Saw this vision is under clear condition. Asked him "What do you see?"
Vision: a solid gold lampstand with a bowl t the top and 7 lights on it. There are 2 olive trees by it, one one the right of the bowl and the other o its left.
Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit.
What are you, O mighty mountain? Who despises that day of small things?
The word f the Load : The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this temple; his hands will also complete it, Then you will know that the Load Almighty has sent me to you.
The 7 (eyes of the stone) is the eyes of the Load, which range throughout the earth. Original scripture haven't eyes, it might be the 7 lights.
2 olive trees are 2 anointed to serve the load of all the earth.
Why?
The lampstand stands for the Temple and faithful Jewish worshipers. Like a city set on the hill, their light shines out for God and cannot be hid.
Two anointed are the priest and the prince (king) go together here. Jesus as fulfillment of this priest-king ideal. Priest Joshua and province chief Zerubbabel.
Zerubbabel was the heir to David's throne, but he is not called king.
This vision shown the coming Jesus will be the light of GOD, cannot be hid. Holy Spirit will come after Jesus, Spirit can do mighty things.
Don't despise the day of small things. It remind us that is important to all human being. About the salvation, the everlasting life.
Mighty mountain can do anything, even it looks so huge, only Holy Spirit can do mighty things.
This temple is smaller than previous one, but it was the work from the Load.
How?
I need to care about the small things, it might be the work of the Load.
Depend on the Holy Spirit to serve God. Follow the way from Spirit to serve the Load.
