Zechariah 3:1-7

Joshua, the High Priest

1 Then he showed me aJoshua the high priest standing before the angel of the Lord, and
Satan is Heb for Adversary; or Accuser
,
cSatan standing at his right to accuse him.
2And the Lord said to Satan, “ dThe Lord rebuke you, Satan! Indeed, the Lord who has echosen Jerusalem rebuke you! Is this not a flog snatched from the fire?” 3Now Joshua was clothed in gfilthy garments and was standing before the angel. 4And he responded and said to those who were standing before him, saying, “ hRemove the filthy garments from him.” Again he said to him, “See, I have itaken your guilt away from you and
Lit to clothe
will kclothe you with festive robes.”
5Then I said, “Have them put a clean lheadband on his head.” So they put the clean headband on his head and clothed him with garments, while the angel of the Lord was standing by.

6 And the angel of the Lord admonished Joshua, saying, 7“The Lord of armies says this: ‘If you mwalk in My ways and perform My service, then you will both ngovern My house and be in charge of My ocourtyards, and I will grant you
Lit goings
free access among these who are standing here.
