Some take this as another Messianic prophecy in Zechariah, because Jesus was clearly wounded by those who should have been His friends. Nevertheless the context and the original Hebrew argue against this referring to Jesus and His wounds. But the Hebrew is more literally between your hands, that is on the body, whether the chest or the back. It is quite evident that he speaks here of false teachers, who had for a time falsely pretended God’s name.
