Context — The Vision of the Horses
8I looked out into the night and saw a man riding on a red horse. He was standing among the myrtle trees in the hollow, and behind him were red, sorrel, and white horses.
9“What are these, my lord?” I asked. And the angel who was speaking with me replied, “I will show you what they are.”
10Then the man standing among the myrtle trees explained, “They are the ones the LORD has sent to patrol the earth.”
11And the riders answered the angel of the LORD who was standing among the myrtle trees, “We have patrolled the earth, and behold, all the earth is at rest and tranquil.” 12Then the angel of the LORD said, “How long, O LORD of Hosts, will You withhold mercy from Jerusalem and the cities of Judah, with which You have been angry these seventy years?”Cross References

Gill's Exposition on Zechariah 1:10
And the man that stood among the myrtle trees answered and said,.... And so prevented the angel from giving the account he was about to give; and who was more capable of it, and which to do was great
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Zechariah 1:10
And the man that stood among the myrtle trees answered and said, These are they whom the LORD hath sent to walk to and fro through the earth. And the man that stood among the myrtle trees answered.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Zechariah 1:10
The man that stood among the myrtle trees: see . Answered; gave answer to what I asked. These; horsemen. They whom the Lord hath sent; a periphrasis of angels, who are servants and ministers of the Divine Providence in the government of the world. To walk to and fro through the earth: God is pleased after the manner of men to speak of his managing the affairs of the world; men must employ others, because they need them, God will employ angels, though he needs them not. The earth; the empires which his churches were either helped or injured by: these were, partly by the pride of their emperors, partly by the flattery of their servants and ministers, and partly by the ignorance of the world at that time in matters of geography, thought to be the whole earth; and the Scripture sometimes useth phrases used and well known among men, though there be some impropriety in them.

Trapp's Commentary on Zechariah 1:10
Zechariah 1:10 And the man that stood among the myrtle trees answered and said, These [are they] whom the LORD hath sent to walk to and fro through the earth.Ver. 10. And the man that stood among the myrtle trees] The man Christ Jesus, that is ever with the Church, and in the midst of his people, that feedeth among the lilies, and walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks. He, being asked by the foresaid angel, answered him (in Zechariah’ s hearing), for he is Palmoni hammedabber, that excellent speaker, as Daniel calleth him, and therefore asketh him of the vision, Daniel 8:13. These are they whom the Lord hath sent] As his εποπται, or overseers and intelligencers. Not that God needeth them, as princes need the counsel and aid of their subjects. The holy angels receive more from God than they perform or bring to him. But he maketh use of their service about us. 1. For the honour of his majesty, and comfort of our infirmity. 2. To make out his love unto us, by employing such noble creatures for our good. 3. To make and maintain love and correspondence between us and angels, till we come to walk arm in arm with angels, as Zechariah 3:7, and to be like unto them, yea, their equals (ισαγγελοι), Luke 20:36, if not more, Ephesians 1:23.
Ellicott's Commentary on Zechariah 1:10
(10) Answered.—The question which Zechariah had put to the angel-interpreter. The earth—i.e., the world, “all the earth” (Zechariah 1:11), not merely “the land of Israel,” as is often the meaning of the word (e.g., Zechariah 13:8).
Adam Clarke's Commentary on Zechariah 1:10
Verse 10. The man that stood among the myrtle trees] The angel of the Covenant, as above, Zechariah 1:11. Whom the Lord hath sent] Who are constituted guardians of the land.
Cambridge Bible on Zechariah 1:10
10. the man] i.e. the rider on the red horse of Zec 1:8, who, in answer it may be to a look or sign from the interpreting angel, takes upon himself to “shew” the prophet “what these be.”
Barnes' Notes on Zechariah 1:10
And the man answered - To the question addressed to the attendant-angel. He himself took the word.
Whedon's Commentary on Zechariah 1:10
10. This explanation is supplied by the further unfolding of the vision. The man among the myrtles (Zechariah 1:8) is the first to speak.
