The Next Testament

Zechariah

Old Testament · 7 sections · scripture: Berean Standard Bible

Zechariah is the longest book of the Twelve and the strangest. It begins in the same year and the same building project as Haggai — 520 BC, the stalled temple, the same governor and the same high priest — and it ends somewhere else entirely, in a landscape of split mountains, living water, and a king riding a donkey.
