1 | Zec 6:12 and 3:8, Orient for Branch? | Zech 6:12 | LookingforTruth | 23722 | ||
I like to cross check different Bibles and today I was checking a KJV against a Catholic Douay version. The verses I read were from Zechariah or Zacharias as follows: KJV Zec 6:12 - And speak unto him, saying,"Thus speaketh the Lord of hosts, saying, Behold the Man Whose name is The Branch; and He shall grow up out of His place, and he shall build the temple of the Lord: Then I read the Douay which said Zac 6:12 - And thou shalt speak to him, saying: Thus saith the Lord of hosts, saying: Behold A Man, The Orient Is His Name: and under him shall he spring up, and shall build a temple to the Lord. The Orient became the Branch in the different books and also this happens in Chapter 3:8 also. I find this strange, does anyone have an explanation for this? |

Word study ... Tsemach is the word in Hebrew (a noun). It means sprout, growth, branch. It is from tsamach, a verb, also seen in Zec 6:12 "whose name is Branch, for He will branch out" (NAS). Since I don't have a Douay Interlinear Bible, I can only guess that the root word for "Orient" is "spring". No matter, it does not make sense why the translation is "Orient". Searcher |
