The four horns are the powers that scattered Judah and Israel and Jerusalem. Immediately after those horns the vision shows four carpenters, coming in answer to them. The carpenters are the agencies the Lord uses to overcome those scattering powers. By them He restores His people and rebuilds the house of His worship. That restoring work embraced both God's own doing and what He wrought through Cyrus and his successors.
