Zechariah 6:15
The Nations Will Come and Build
Those “who are far off” are the nations. They will cooperate in building the temple of the LORD. It is about those from the nations who repent to the God of Israel. They will be counted among God’s people and will be allowed to build, not the temple, but the wall (Isa 60:10).Again, the ‘me’ sent is ultimately the Messiah and not Zechariah (cf. Zec 4:9). Zechariah is here a picture of Him. The prerequisite for the fulfillment of all these things is to “completely obey the LORD your God”. They will do the same in the future, for then the law of God is given in their minds and written in their hearts (Heb 8:10). Then He is truly ‘their God’.
