Zechariah

QUICK SUMMARY

Zechariah is a compelling text of great historical significance as it blends theological depth, eschatological significance and historical context with apocalyptic visions and messages of hope. Making its mark in the Hebrew Bible or Old Testament, its prophecies were ultimately encouragement for the people of Judah during the restoration period after the Babylonian exile. Zechariah encourages the rebuilding of the Temple and emphasizes themes of repentance, restoration, and renewal. One of the unique features of Zechariah is its use of symbolic visions and imagery, such as the vision of the horsemen and the symbolic crowning of Joshua the high priest.

Its prophecies also echo in the New Testament, particularly in the four gospels, concerning the Messiah and the future redemption of Israel.
