Wesley's Notes

2:22 Their strength - Bring forth as much as they are able to stand under.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

22. (Zec 8:12). As before (Joe 1:18, 20) he represented the beasts as groaning and crying for want of food in the "pastures," so now he reassures them by the promise of springing pastures.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

2:15-27 The priests and rulers are to appoint a solemn fast. The sinner's supplication is, Spare us, good Lord. God is ready to succour his people; and he waits to be gracious. They prayed that God would spare them, and he answered them. His promises are real answers to the prayers of faith; with him saying and doing are not two things. Some understand these promises figuratively, as pointing to gospel grace, and as fulfilled in the abundant comforts treasured up for believers in the covenant of grace.


Psalm 65:12 The pastures of the wilderness drip, And the hills gird themselves with rejoicing.
Psalm 65:13 The meadows are clothed with flocks And the valleys are covered with grain; They shout for joy, yes, they sing. (NASB ©1995)
