JOSHUA, SYMBOLICAL

Zechariah 3:1-10

1. He showed me JOSHUA the high priest standing before The LORD's angel, and Satan standing at his right hand to be his adversary.
2. The LORD said to Satan, "The LORD rebuke you, Satan! Yes, the LORD who has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you! Isn't this a burning stick plucked out of the fire?"
3. Now JOSHUA was clothed with filthy garments, and was standing before the angel.
4. He answered and spoke to those who stood before him, saying, "Take the filthy garments off of him." To him he said, "Behold, I have caused your iniquity to pass from you, and I will clothe you with rich clothing."
5. I said, "Let them set a clean turban on his head."So they set a clean turban on his head, and clothed him; and The LORD's angel was standing by.
6. The LORD's angel protested to JOSHUA, saying,
7. "The LORD of Armies says: 'If you will walk in my ways, and if you will follow my instructions, then you also shall judge my house, and shall also keep my courts, and I will give you a place of access among these who stand by.
8. Hear now, JOSHUA the high priest, you and your fellows who sit before you; for they are men who are a sign: for, behold, I will bring out my servant, the Branch.
9. For, behold, the stone that I have set before JOSHUA; on one stone are seven eyes: behold, I will engrave its engraving,' says the LORD of Hosts, 'and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day.
10. In that day,' says the LORD of Hosts, 'you will invite every man his neighbor under the vine and under the fig tree.'"

Zechariah 6:9-15

9. The LORD's word came to me, saying,
10. "Take of them of the captivity, even of Heldai, of Tobijah, and of Jedaiah; and come the same day, and go into the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah, where they have come from Babylon.
11. Yes, take silver and gold, and make crowns, and set them on the head of JOSHUA the son of Jehozadak, the high priest;
12. and speak to him, saying, 'The LORD of Armies says, "Behold, the man whose name is the Branch: and he shall grow up out of his place; and he shall build The LORD's temple;
13. even he shall build The LORD's temple; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule on his throne; and he shall be a priest on his throne; and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.
14. The crowns shall be to Helem, and to Tobijah, and to Jedaiah, and to Hen the son of Zephaniah, for a memorial in The LORD's temple.
15. Those who are far off shall come and build in The LORD's temple; and you shall know that the LORD of Hosts has sent me to you. This will happen, if you will diligently obey the LORD your God's voice."'"
