(KJV) Zechariah 1:9

Then said I, O my lord, what are these? And the angel that talked with me said unto me, I will shew thee what these be.

The interpreting angel continued to explain things to Zechariah (Zechariah 1:3-14, 19; 2:3; 4:1, 4-5; 5:5, 10; 6:4-5). This angel, however, is not the same as the angel of the Lord.

(KJV) Zechariah 1:8-11

I saw by night, and behold a man riding upon a red horse, and he stood among the myrtle trees that were in the bottom; and behind him were there red horses, speckled, and white.⁹ Then said I, O my lord, what are these? And the angel that talked with me said unto me, I will shew thee what these be. ¹⁰ And the man that stood among the myrtle trees answered and said, These are they whom the Lord hath sent to walk to and fro through the earth. ¹¹ And they answered the angel of the Lord that stood among the myrtle trees, and said, We have walked to and fro through the earth, and, behold, all the earth sitteth still, and is at rest.

A vision is different from a dream. When a person dreams, he is asleep; when a person has a vision, he is awake. Therefore, Zechariah probably was full awake when he saw these images. In February of 519 B.C. God gave Zechariah a vision of a man on a red horse in a grove of myrtle trees, with various other horses behind him. Some believe this was an appearance of Christ as “the angel of the LORD” (Zechariah 1:11-12). A different angel interpreted the vision by explaining that these horses had observed the whole world and found it at rest and in peace (Zechariah 1:11); yet God’s people in Judah were still oppressed and insecure. The Lord would change the world situation by restoring security to His people and prospering Jerusalem and the towns of Judah (Zechariah 1:17).

(KJV) Zechariah 1:4

Be ye not as your fathers, unto whom the former prophets have cried, saying, Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Turn ye now from your evil ways, and from your evil doings: but they did not hear, nor hearken unto me, saith the Lord.

God reminds the people of how He had given their ancestors the same challenge through the earlier prophets, but they had not listened. 

1. Because they had refused to give up their own evil ways, the forefathers missed their opportunities to respond positively to God. As a result, they suffered the results of their sin. The warnings and curses recorded in Deuteronomy 28 were fulfilled.
2. In the same way, if we refuse to avoid the sinful pleasures that are common in the world and allow them to interfere with our relationship with God, we too will miss His plan for our lives and lose the highest blessings He has planned for us.

(KJV) Zechariah 1:3

Therefore say thou unto them, Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Turn ye unto me, saith the Lord of hosts, and I will turn unto you, saith the Lord of hosts.

God’s message through Zechariah begins with a call for the people to return to God – to give up their own rebellious ways, live by God’s standards and follow His purposes. God was waiting for them to obey Him, and, as they did, He promised to bless and protect them.

(KJV) Zechariah 1:1

In the eighth month, in the second year of Darius, came the word of the Lord unto Zechariah, the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo the prophet, saying

In November of 520 B.C., about a month after Haggai’s second prophecy (Haggai 2:1), God inspired Zechariah, a younger man, to help Haggai encourage the people to rebuild the temple. The first six chapters contain a series of eight night visions the prophet received during the first two years of the rebuilding of the temple. These visions challenged the people to view the temple restoration as part of God’s larger plan to bring a greater restoration – a spiritual one – in the future. Christ’s first and second comings (His birth and His return to earth to defeat the forces of evil in the last days) are both included in these prophecies.

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DEVOTION

KJV) Zachariah 14:17  
And it shall be, that whoso will not come up of all the families of the earth unto Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, even upon them shall be no rain.

A total absence of rain will be the punishment on nations that do not go up to worship the Lord and celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles (Zechariah 14:16).
