Publisher Description

The study of the book of Zechariah is bound to be enriching, for it is imbued from beginning to end with the same heart-cry that Jesus turned into a prayer for all of us: "Your kingdom come."

Here Barry G. Webb explores the kingdom of God as the prophet Zechariah apprehended it. In oracles and visions Zechariah challenged his hearers

  • to return to the coming kingdom
  • to cleanse themselves in anticipation of the cleansing fountain of God's grace
  • to restore the city of Jerusalem in preparation for its coming glorification

The promises of God in the book of Zechariah are meant to fuel the faithfulness of God’s people and prepare the way for the promised Messiah.
