NETBible

“What are you, you great mountain?¹ Because of Zerubbabel you will become a level plain! And he will bring forth the temple² capstone with shoutings of ‘Grace! Grace!’³ because of this.”

NET Notes

¹sn In context, the great mountain here must be viewed as a metaphor for the enormous task of rebuilding the temple and establishing the messianic kingdom (cf. TEV “Obstacles as great as mountains”).

²tn The word “temple” has been supplied in the translation to clarify the referent (cf. NLT “final stone of the Temple”).

³sn Grace is a fitting response to the idea that it was “not by strength and not by power” but by God’s gracious Spirit that the work could be done (cf. v. 6).
