Bible Study — Going deeper with words studies and Greek & Hebrew tools
Jesus and Joshua word study continued from last week
This study will help you find the Messiah's name (Jesus!) in the Old Testament!
Background:
Written about 500 years before Christ, this book was written by the prophet Zechariah. The Israelites who had been exiled in Babylon, were released by Cyrus to go back to their homeland and rebuild the temple of the Lord. The people were apathetic and disheartened in their pursuit to finish the Lord’s temple and basically disobedient to the Lord. So God prophesies through Zechariah a message of repentance and consolation. God wants them to know that their work on the temple has a plan stretching into the future and connects with God’s plan to establish His kingdom through the coming Messiah. Zechariah’s prophesies of the Messiah are probably the most extensive of all the Minor Prophets.
The rest of the study…
