Zechariah 4:11-14



Standing at the right hand of God is Jesus Christ accompanied by the power of the Holy Spirit to accomplish all that the Father wills. Not by human power but by His power is His will on heaven and earth completed. Jesus is the capstone of the Church, the grace of God, and He came with shouts of Peace, peace to the people of earth.......accept His grace!

The two olive branches are identified as two anointed ones, representatives of the religious and political offices in Israel, or of priest and king. Many identify the two branches with the high priest Joshua and the governor Zerubbabel.

Zechariah 4:11-14

11 Then I answered and said to him, “What are these two olive trees—at the right of the lampstand and at its left?” 12 And I further answered and said to him, “What are these two olive branches that drip into the receptacles of the two gold pipes from which the golden oil drains?” 

13 Then he answered me and said, “Do you not know what these are?” 
And I said, “No, my lord.” 

14 So he said, “These are the two anointed ones, who stand beside the Lord of the whole earth.”
