Description

The encouragement which Zechariah’s prophecies brought to the Jews at the time of their return from exile helped them to rebuild not only their temple but also their national identity. Yet Zechariah’s message of hope pointed beyond the glory of the temple to one greater then the temple: the Anointed One (Messiah) who would become both priest and king forever over all nations.With verse by verse commentary and explanatory notes, Zechariah Prophet of Messiah provides a simple introduction to the study of a period of hope in Israel’s history – hope in the midst of difficulty, as the nation returned from exile in Babylon.
