Exegesis
The parallelism wenastem kaasher nastem {וְנַסְתֶּ֗ם כַּאֲשֶׁ֤ר נַסְתֶּם֙ | wə-nas-tem ka-ʾă-šer nās-tem} ‘you will flee as you fled’ recalls minpnei haraash {מִפְּנֵ֣י הָרַ֔עַשׁ | min-pə-nêy hā-ra-ʿaš} ‘from before the earthquake,’ creating a historical typology linked to Uzziah’s reign (bimei uzziah melekyehudah).
In context — Zechariah 14:5
And you will flee to the valley of my mountains, for the valley of the mountains will reach to Azal. And you will flee as you fled from the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. And the LORD my God will come, and all the holy ones with you.
