Zechariah 9:16

save them . . . as the flock of his people--as the flock of His people ought to be saved (Psalms 77:20). Here the image of war and bloodshed (Zechariah 9:15) is exchanged for the shepherd and flock, as God will give not only victory, but afterwards safe and lasting peace. In contrast to the worthless sling-stones trodden under foot stand the (gems) "stones of the crown (Isaiah 62:3; Malachi 3:17), lifted up as an ensign," that all may flock to the Jewish Church (Isaiah 11:10, Isaiah 11:12; Isaiah 62:10).
