The   Book of    Zechariah stands at a transition point in the history of  God’s   people,   looking both backwards and forwards in time. It  helpfully  points  out   both past problems and God’s future solution. It  covers  issues such  as   God’s sovereignty, the significance of the  rebuilding  of the temple   in  Jerusalem, the coming of the Messiah, the  glorious  future hope, and   the  incorporation of Gentiles into the  people of  God. Zechariah is not particularly well-known, and its style of writing      makes it a challenge, but as with anything that is unfamiliar it  will     take work to understand. What does come through is how much of   Jesus’    ministry is prophesied and how intent God is on rescuing His   people.  We   have a great hope
