The symbol consisted for 4 horses pulling chariots and being dispersed from Jerusalem to the outermost parts of the […]

THE BOOK OF ZECHARIAH Lesson 6, Chapter 3 I think the best way to frame what Zechariah chapter 3 is all about is first to provide the context of how Yehoveh saw Judah at the time He exiled them, and the resulting condition of the returned exiles in general. That is, the people that journeyed […]

THE BOOK OF ZECHARIAH Lesson 5, Chapter 2 Continued At this point in our study, Zechariah’s third vision in this long series of vision/oracles has been given.

THE BOOK OF ZECHARIAH Lesson 4, Chapter 2 We leave chapter 1 and begin chapter 2 of Zechariah, a most unique Prophet in the way he presents the oracles God gave to him, which operates mostly in complex symbolism because it deals so very much with the future. When I say “the future” I mean […]

THE BOOK OF ZECHARIAH Lesson 1, Introduction and Chapter 1 Today we open the Book of Zechariah with an introduction to prepare us to more thoroughly study it.
