Commentary

The pride and self-righteousness of the Jews were the stumbling block in the way of their acknowledging Christ. The contrition of Israel in the last days shall be attended with God's interposition in their behalf. So their self-humiliation, in Isa 66:2, Isa 66:5, Isa 66:10, &c., precedes their final prosperity (Zac 12:6, Zac 12:10-14); there will, probably, be a previous period of unbelief even after their return (Zac 12:8-9).
