Zec 11:14 | CPDV | STEP | And I cut short my second staff, which was called Rope, so that I might dissolve the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.

‏ Zechariah 11:14

14 And I cut short my second staff, which was called Rope, so that I might dissolve the brotherhood between Judah and Israel. ^{▼▼11:14The word ‘germanitatem’ is feminine, so a translation of ‘sisterhood’ might be justifiable. However, Judah and Israel are two groups symbolically represented with the names of two men, so the translation is ‘brotherhood.’ Notice that the first staff was cut down, but the second was merely shortened.(Conte)}
