Zechariah 3:2

3:2 The Lord ¹  said to Satan, “May the Lord rebuke you, Satan! May the Lord, who has chosen Jerusalem, ²  rebuke you! Isn’t this man like a burning stick snatched from the fire?”

Jude 1:9

1:9 But even ³  when Michael the archangel ⁴  was arguing with the devil and debating with him ⁵  concerning Moses’ body, he did not dare to bring a slanderous judgment, but said, “May the Lord rebuke you!”

¹ sn The juxtaposition of the messenger of the Lord in v. 1 and the Lord in v. 2 shows that here, at least, they are one and the same. See Zech 1:11, 12 where they are distinguished from each other.

³ tn The word “even” is not in Greek; it is implied by the height of the contrast.

⁴ sn According to Jewish intertestamental literature (such as 1 En. 20), Michael was one of seven archangels.

⁵ tn The sentence structure is a bit different in Greek. Literally it reads: “But Michael the archangel, when arguing with the devil and disputing.”
