Introduction:
The prophecies of Zechariah gives us a prophetic perspective "above history and time", peering into Israel's immediate and far distant future. Zechariah's prophetic writings focus primarily upon the restoration of the second temple in Jerusalem after the 70 year Babylonian captivity, but also foretells the coming of the Messiah to suffer and later reign as King over all the earth. Zechariah seemed to have used expressions previously used by Jeremiah. "The spirit of Jeremiah dwelt in Zechariah" was a quote coined by his contemporaries, but his style approaches Ezekiel and Daniel in his account of his night visions.This compelling study is for anyone interested in the purposes of the God of Israel in past, present and future times.
