Amplified 2015 Translator's Notes:
Literal renderings, alternate translations or explanations.

As a matter of discussion, one of the ancient rabbis noted an apparent contradiction between the Messiah's majestic return with clouds in this verse and His humble return on a donkey in Zech 9:9. The solution given was that if Israel is worthy of Him, the Messiah will return with the clouds; if not, He will return on a donkey.
