Question source
Zechariah
The LORD introduces “my servant the Branch” in Zechariah 3:8. The Branch is later described as the one who will build the temple of the LORD and bear royal honor in Zechariah 6:12–13. The text connects him with temple building and rule.
12and speak to him, saying, Thus speaks Yahweh of Hosts, saying, Behold, the man whose name is the Branch: and he shall grow up out of his place; and he shall build the temple of Yahweh;
13even he shall build the temple of Yahweh; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule on his throne; and he shall be a priest on his throne; and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.
