And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles.
And here's what's going to happen: everyone who's left from all those nations that fought against Jerusalem? They're going to make the trip every single year to worship the King, the LORD who rules over everything, and celebrate the festival of booths.
Even former enemies will become annual worshippers when God's kingdom comes.
📚 Historical Context
Zechariah was a prophet who ministered to the Jewish people around 520 BC, after their return from exile in Babylon, as they rebuilt the temple and sought to restore their nation. In Chapter 14, he envisions a future day of divine intervention where God defends Jerusalem from invading nations, resulting in His ultimate victory and the establishment of His kingship over all. This prophecy highlights the survivors of those nations coming annually to worship God and observe the Feast of Tabernacles, a biblical festival that celebrated God's protection and provision during the wilderness journey.
