Here’s an excerpt from the blog post.
Right away, we want to return to Joshua, the High Priest, and see that he has been given a crown. This is a new thing! No High Priest was ever crowned as king, but then we call to mind the words from chapter 3 that this man is a sign of what is to come: a priest and a King. The only place we have seen such a thing in the Scripture prior to this point occurs outside the Jewish system. Melchizedek, in Genesis 14, was the first Priest of God Most High and was also a King. The only place we will see this after Zecharaiah will be in the person of Jesus Christ. Pay special attention to verses 12-13, "Thus says the Lord of hosts, behold, the man whose name is the Branch; for he shall branch out from his place, and he shall build the temple of the Lord. It is he who shall build the temple of the Lord, bear royal honor, and sit and rule on his throne. And there shall be a priest on his throne, and the counsel of peace shall be between them both." There are a couple of things to unpack here.
First, we already know that "the Branch" is a reference to Jesus. We saw that in Isaiah 11. The Branch will build the Temple of the Lord, or build the house of the Lord. In the New Testament we see that the believers are the Temple of the Lord, built together in Christ our true cornerstone.
