14:4 And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south.
“and the mount of Olives”
Zech 14:5 implies that the cleavage of the Mount of Olives is due to an earthquake, and this is confirmed by; Isa 29:6; Rev 16:19. In both passages the context, as in Zech 14:1–3 associates the earthquake with the Gentile invasion under the Beast; Dan 7:8; Rev 19:20. Surely, in a land seamed by seismic disturbances it should not be difficult to believe that another earthquake might cleave the little hill called the Mount of Olives. Not one of the associated events of Zechariah 14 occurred at the first coming of Christ, closely associated though He then was with the Mount of Olives.
