Zechariah The Quintessence of Old Testament Prophecy
Dealing with both the first and second coming of Messiah, Zechariah is "the most Messianic, the most truly apocalyptic and eschatological of all the writings of the Old Testament."—George L. Robinson, PhD.
Some of the great passages include: The "Branch," who is the servant (3:8), the "man," who is the "Branch," The "King-Priest" (6:13), his triumphal entry into Jerusalem (9:9), the True Shepherd (11:4-11), the Betrayal of the true Shepherd (11:12-13), the "piercing" of the Lord (12:10), and his second Advent in glory (14:4).
