The Prophet's Question
Zechariah's question, "Where are these bearing the ephah?" is the central point of this verse. As commentator John Gill notes, the prophet's focus isn't on the strange sight of the women or the ephah itself, but on its destination. This highlights that understanding the ultimate purpose and destination of things is key to interpreting God's actions.
