Zechariah 6:11

Then take silver and gold, and make crowns, and set them upon the head of Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest;
9

And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

10

Take of them of the captivity, even of Heldai, of Tobijah, and of Jedaiah, which are come from Babylon, and come thou the same day, and go into the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah;

11

Then take silver and gold, and make crowns, and set them upon the head of Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest;

12

And speak unto him, saying, Thus speaketh the Lord 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 the Lord:

13

Even he shall build the temple of the Lord; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and he shall be a priest upon his throne: and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.

Counter-Arguments

The strongest case that this verse does not belong in this theme.

Christ as High Priest

The verse explicitly refers to "Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest" and instructs the making of crowns for *him*, not for a future, different high priest or messianic figure. There is no mention of Jesus, Christ, or any concept of a transcendent priesthood or self-sacrifice within this text.
