and, as another scripture says, “They will look on the one they have pierced.”
The second of those unusual circumstances was also to fulfill scripture and this time the scripture is stated (Zec 12:10). This whole passage in Zechariah is about the coming of Messiah and the results of it (Zech 12:10 – 13:9). Even though it was one Roman soldier who pierced the side of Messiah, in reality it was each of us for we have all transgressed (Isa 53:5); and we shall all see Him when He comes and mourn over Him (Rev 1:7).
Zechariah 12:10 “And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and supplication. They will look on me, the one they have pierced, and they will mourn for him as one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for him as one grieves for a firstborn son.
Isaiah 53:5 But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed.
Revelation 1:7 Look, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, even those who pierced him; and all the peoples of the earth will mourn because of him. So shall it be! Amen.
