Zechariah 3:8

8 Now listen, Joshua the high priest, you and your friends who are sitting in front of you—indeed they are men who are a awondrous sign, for behold, I am going to bring in My servant the 1bBranch.

Zechariah 12:10-12


Mourning for the Pierced One

10 “And I will apour out on the house of David and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem 1the Spirit of grace and of supplication, so that they will look on Me whom they have bpierced; and they will mourn for Him, as one cmourns for an only son, and they will weep bitterly over Him like the bitter weeping over a firstborn.
11 In that day there will be great amourning in Jerusalem, like the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the 1plain of 2Megiddo. 12 And the land will mourn, each family alone; the family of the house of David alone and their wives alone; the family of the house of Nathan alone and their wives alone;

Matthew 23:39

39 For I say to you, from now on you will not see Me until you say, ‘aBlessed is He who comes in the name of the 1Lord!’”

Romans 11:16-24

16 And if the afirst piece of dough is holy, the lump is also; and if the root is holy, the branches are too.
17 But if some of the abranches were broken off, and byou, being a wild olive, were grafted in among them and became a partaker with them of the 1rich root of the olive tree,
18 do not boast against the branches. But if you do boast against them, remember that ait is not you who supports the root, but the root supports you. 19 aYou will say then, “Branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in.” 20 Quite right! They were broken off for their unbelief, but you astand by your faith. bDo not be haughty, but fear, 21 for if God did not spare the natural branches, He will not spare you, either. 22 Behold then the kindness and severity of God; to those who fell, severity, but to you, God’s akindness, bif you continue in His kindness; otherwise you also cwill be cut off. 23 And they also, aif they do not continue in their unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again. 24 For if you were cut off from what is by nature a wild olive tree, and were grafted contrary to nature into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these who are the natural branches be grafted into their own olive tree?
