Measure Of Iniquities

Zechariah 5:1-2  

"Then I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a flying roll.

And he said unto me, What seest thou? And I answered, I see a flying roll; 

the length thereof is twenty cubits, and the breadth thereof ten cubits" 

    A vast large scroll of parchment which had been rolled up, and is therefore called a roll, was now unrolled and expanded; this roll was flying upon the wings of the wind, carried swiftly through the air in open view. As the command of the law is in writing, for certainty and perpetuity, so is the curse of the law; it writes bitter things against the sinner. “What I have written I have written and what is written remains.” 
   The Scriptures of The Old Testament and The New, are rolls, in which God has written to us the great things of His law and gospel. Christ is the Master of the rolls. They are large rolls, and have much in them. They are flying rolls; the angel that had the everlasting gospel to preach flew in the midst of heaven, "And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people," (Rev. 14:6).  God's word runs swift and sure.   
   God was removing wickedness from His land. For Joshua the priest and Zerubbabel
this presented a challenged to make sure the land was purged of wickedness. This would have been impossible without God's assistance. The woman sitting in the midst of the ephah with the lead cast in her mouth may represent the sinful church and nation of the Jews, in their latter and corrupt age. Guilt is upon the sinner as a weight of lead, to sink him to the lowest hell. This may mean the condemnation of the Jews, after they filled the measure of their iniquities by crucifying Christ and rejecting His Gospel. 
   My Friends, That same guilt is upon all generations as a weight of lead, and it will sink those who fills their measure of iniquities to hell, Seek, "Jesus Christ As Your Savoir Today!"
Amen!
