ZechariahSteve Gregg
Scholars have debated the authorship and division of the book of Zechariah, with chapters 8 and 9 marking a significant change. Despite confusion around the historical context of the text, the prophecies made in the book offer insight into the life of Christ. The book includes several mentions of a "burden of the word of the Lord" that the prophet Zechariah shares with a heavy heart. The book foretells the destruction of various cities and nations, causing fear and anxiety for those unknowingly subject to the predicted chaos.
