Zechariah, chapter 13 Chapter 13 states that in that day a fountain will be open to the house of David and to Jerusalem for sin and uncleanness. When that happens the idols will be removed from Jerusalem and all Israel and the prophets will be cut off because the Holy Spirit will be poured out in such quantity that prophecy will no longer be needed, and those who pretend to prophesy in the name of the Lord will die (Zech. 13:3). Unless one has seen Jerusalem, it is difficult to comprehend the idolatry there with idols and icons and false sites and heresy and false teachings everywhere. People think they serve God by slobbering prostrate kissing stones and idols in some perceived piety. When God removes this falsehood from Jerusalem and pours out His Holy Spirit the prophets shall claim husbandry. Zechariah 13:7 refers back to the killing of Messiah and the scattering of the elect in fulfilling Isaiah 53:5-10. The sheep will see two-thirds dead and one third scattered and refined in the fire (13:8-9).
