The reconstruction of the Temple in Jerusalem is well under way. Now a delegation arrives from the sanctuary at Bethel. The delegation inquires of the staff in Jerusalem whether certain worship practices should continue. The LORD assigns Zechariah the responsibility to answer.
The strong messianic overtones of Zechariah 6:9-15 are not lost on us. We see the Lord Jesus prefigured in the name of the son of Jehozodak, namely "Joshua," the Hebrew form of the name Jesus.
