GOD SOVEREIGNTY OF GLORIOUS MESSIANIC COMING TO ESTABLISH HIS ISRAEL KINGDOM & CONTROL OVER THE EARTH

Zechariah 3:8-9 "Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, thou, and thy fellows that sit before thee: for they are men wondered at: for, behold, I will bring forth my servant the BRANCH. {9} For behold the stone that I have laid before Joshua; upon one stone shall be seven eyes: behold, I will engrave the graving thereof, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day." BRANCH is Jesus

Zechariah 14:3-5 "Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle. {4} And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south. {5} And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the LORD my God shall come, and all the saints with thee."

Zechariah 14:9 "And the LORD shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one LORD, and his name one."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(1) 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. {Zechariah 1:3}

(2) 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. {Zechariah 1:4}

(3) But my words and my statutes, which I commanded my servants the prophets, did they not take hold of your fathers? and they returned and said, Like as the LORD of hosts thought to do unto us, according to our ways, and according to our doings, so hath he dealt with us. {Zechariah 1:6}

(4) Then the angel of the LORD answered and said, O LORD of hosts, how long wilt thou not have mercy on Jerusalem and on the cities of Judah, against which thou hast had indignation these threescore and ten years? {Zechariah 1:12}

(5) So the angel that communed with me said unto me, Cry thou, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; I am jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion with a great jealousy. {Zechariah 1:14}

(6) Therefore thus saith the LORD; I am returned to Jerusalem with mercies: my house shall be built in it, saith the LORD of hosts, and a line shall be stretched forth upon Jerusalem. {Zechariah 1:16}

(7) Cry yet, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; My cities through prosperity shall yet be spread abroad; and the LORD shall yet comfort Zion, and shall yet choose Jerusalem. {Zechariah 1:17}

(8) For thus saith the LORD of hosts; After the glory hath he sent me unto the nations which spoiled you: for he that toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye. {Zechariah 2:8}

(9) For, behold, I will shake mine hand upon them, and they shall be a spoil to their servants: and ye shall know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me. {Zechariah 2:9}

(10) And many nations shall be joined to the LORD in that day, and shall be my people: and I will dwell in the midst of thee, and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto thee. {Zechariah 2:11}

(11) Thus saith the LORD of hosts; If thou wilt walk in my ways, and if thou wilt keep my charge, then thou shalt also judge my house, and shalt also keep my courts, and I will give thee places to walk among these that stand by. {Zechariah 3:7}

(12) For behold the stone that I have laid before Joshua; upon one stone shall be seven eyes: behold, I will engrave the graving thereof, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day. {Zechariah 3:9}

(13) In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall ye call every man his neighbour under the vine and under the fig tree. {Zechariah 3:10}

(14) Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts. {Zechariah 4:6}

(15) The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also finish it; and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto you. {Zechariah 4:9}

(16) I will bring it forth, saith the LORD of hosts, and it shall enter into the house of the thief, and into the house of him that sweareth falsely by my name: and it shall remain in the midst of his house, and shall consume it with the timber thereof and the stones thereof. {Zechariah 5:4}

(17) And speak unto him, saying, Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Behold the man whose name is The BRANCH; and he shall grow up out of his place, and he shall build the temple of the LORD: {Zechariah 6:12}

(18) And they that are far off shall come and build in the temple of the LORD, and ye shall know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto you. And this shall come to pass, if ye will diligently obey the voice of the LORD your God. {Zechariah 6:15}

(19) And to speak unto the priests which were in the house of the LORD of hosts, and to the prophets, saying, Should I weep in the fifth month, separating myself, as I have done these so many years? {Zechariah 7:3}

(20) Then came the word of the LORD of hosts unto me, saying, {Zechariah 7:4}

(21) Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Execute true judgment, and shew mercy and compassions every man to his brother: {Zechariah 7:9}

(22) Yea, they made their hearts as an adamant stone, lest they should hear the law, and the words which the LORD of hosts hath sent in his spirit by the former prophets: therefore came a great wrath from the LORD of hosts. {Zechariah 7:12}

(23) Therefore it is come to pass, that as he cried, and they would not hear; so they cried, and I would not hear, saith the LORD of hosts: {Zechariah 7:13}

(24) Again the word of the LORD of hosts came to me, saying, {Zechariah 8:1}

(25) Thus saith the LORD of hosts; I was jealous for Zion with great jealousy, and I was jealous for her with great fury. {Zechariah 8:2}

(26) Thus saith the LORD; I am returned unto Zion, and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and Jerusalem shall be called a city of truth; and the mountain of the LORD of hosts the holy mountain. {Zechariah 8:3}

(27) Thus saith the LORD of hosts; There shall yet old men and old women dwell in the streets of Jerusalem, and every man with his staff in his hand for very age. {Zechariah 8:4}

(28) Thus saith the LORD of hosts; If it be marvellous in the eyes of the remnant of this people in these days, should it also be marvellous in mine eyes? saith the LORD of hosts. {Zechariah 8:6}

(29) Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Behold, I will save my people from the east country, and from the west country; {Zechariah 8:7}

(30) Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Let your hands be strong, ye that hear in these days these words by the mouth of the prophets, which were in the day that the foundation of the house of the LORD of hosts was laid, that the temple might be built. {Zechariah 8:9}

(31) But now I will not be unto the residue of this people as in the former days, saith the LORD of hosts. {Zechariah 8:11}

(32) For thus saith the LORD of hosts; As I thought to punish you, when your fathers provoked me to wrath, saith the LORD of hosts, and I repented not: {Zechariah 8:14}

(33) And the word of the LORD of hosts came unto me, saying, {Zechariah 8:18}

(34) Thus saith the LORD of hosts; The fast of the fourth month, and the fast of the fifth, and the fast of the seventh, and the fast of the tenth, shall be to the house of Judah joy and gladness, and cheerful feasts; therefore love the truth and peace. {Zechariah 8:19}

(35) Thus saith the LORD of hosts; It shall yet come to pass, that there shall come people, and the inhabitants of many cities: {Zechariah 8:20}

(36) And the inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying, Let us go speedily to pray before the LORD, and to seek the LORD of hosts: I will go also. {Zechariah 8:21}

(37) Yea, many people and strong nations shall come to seek the LORD of hosts in Jerusalem, and to pray before the LORD. {Zechariah 8:22}

(38) Thus saith the LORD of hosts; In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, We will go with you: for we have heard that God is with you. {Zechariah 8:23}

(39) The LORD of hosts shall defend them; and they shall devour, and subdue with sling stones; and they shall drink, and make a noise as through wine; and they shall be filled like bowls, and as the corners of the altar. {Zechariah 9:15}

(40) Mine anger was kindled against the shepherds, and I punished the goats: for the LORD of hosts hath visited his flock the house of Judah, and hath made them as his goodly horse in the battle. {Zechariah 10:3}

(41) And the governors of Judah shall say in their heart, The inhabitants of Jerusalem shall be my strength in the LORD of hosts their God. {Zechariah 12:5}

(42) And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD of hosts, that I will cut off the names of the idols out of the land, and they shall no more be remembered: and also I will cause the prophets and the unclean spirit to pass out of the land. {Zechariah 13:2}

(43) Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, and against the man that is my fellow, saith the LORD of hosts: smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered: and I will turn mine hand upon the little ones. {Zechariah 13:7}

(44) And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles. {Zechariah 14:16}

(45) 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. {Zechariah 14:17}

(46) Yea, every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah shall be holiness unto the LORD of hosts: and all they that sacrifice shall come and take of them, and seethe therein: and in that day there shall be no more the Canaanite in the house of the LORD of hosts. {Zechariah 14:21}

(1) 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. {Zechariah 1:3}

(4) 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. {Zechariah 1:9}

(5) 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. {Zechariah 1:10}

(6) 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. {Zechariah 1:11}

(7) Then the angel of the LORD answered and said, O LORD of hosts, how long wilt thou not have mercy on Jerusalem and on the cities of Judah, against which thou hast had indignation these threescore and ten years? {Zechariah 1:12}

(8) So the angel that communed with me said unto me, Cry thou, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; I am jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion with a great jealousy. {Zechariah 1:14}

(9) Therefore thus saith the LORD; I am returned to Jerusalem with mercies: my house shall be built in it, saith the LORD of hosts, and a line shall be stretched forth upon Jerusalem. {Zechariah 1:16}

(11) And I said unto the angel that talked with me, What be these? And he answered me, These are the horns which have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem. {Zechariah 1:19}

(12) Then said I, What come these to do? And he spake, saying, These are the horns which have scattered Judah, so that no man did lift up his head: but these are come to fray them, to cast out the horns of the Gentiles, which lifted up their horn over the land of Judah to scatter it. {Zechariah 1:21}

(13) Then said I, Whither goest thou? And he said unto me, To measure Jerusalem, to see what is the breadth thereof, and what is the length thereof. {Zechariah 2:2}

(14) And said unto him, Run, speak to this young man, saying, Jerusalem shall be inhabited as towns without walls for the multitude of men and cattle therein: {Zechariah 2:4}

(15) For I, saith the LORD, will be unto her a wall of fire round about, and will be the glory in the midst of her. {Zechariah 2:5}

(16) Ho, ho, come forth, and flee from the land of the north, saith the LORD: for I have spread you abroad as the four winds of the heaven, saith the LORD. {Zechariah 2:6}

(17) For thus saith the LORD of hosts; After the glory hath he sent me unto the nations which spoiled you: for he that toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye. {Zechariah 2:8}

(18) Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion: for, lo, I come, and I will dwell in the midst of thee, saith the LORD. {Zechariah 2:10}

(19) And the LORD said unto Satan, The LORD rebuke thee, O Satan; even the LORD that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee: is not this a brand plucked out of the fire? {Zechariah 3:2}

(20) And he answered and spake unto those that stood before him, saying, Take away the filthy garments from him. And unto him he said, Behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with change of raiment. {Zechariah 3:4}

(21) And I said, Let them set a fair mitre upon his head. So they set a fair mitre upon his head, and clothed him with garments. And the angel of the LORD stood by. {Zechariah 3:5}

(22) And the angel of the LORD protested unto Joshua, saying, {Zechariah 3:6}

(23) Thus saith the LORD of hosts; If thou wilt walk in my ways, and if thou wilt keep my charge, then thou shalt also judge my house, and shalt also keep my courts, and I will give thee places to walk among these that stand by. {Zechariah 3:7}

(24) For behold the stone that I have laid before Joshua; upon one stone shall be seven eyes: behold, I will engrave the graving thereof, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day. {Zechariah 3:9}

(25) In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall ye call every man his neighbour under the vine and under the fig tree. {Zechariah 3:10}

(26) And said unto me, What seest thou? And I said, I have looked, and behold a candlestick all of gold, with a bowl upon the top of it, and his seven lamps thereon, and seven pipes to the seven lamps, which are upon the top thereof: {Zechariah 4:2}

(27) So I answered and spake to the angel that talked with me, saying, What are these, my lord? {Zechariah 4:4}

(28) Then the angel that talked with me answered and said unto me, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my lord. {Zechariah 4:5}

(29) Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts. {Zechariah 4:6}

(30) Then answered I, and said unto him, What are these two olive trees upon the right side of the candlestick and upon the left side thereof? {Zechariah 4:11}

(31) And I answered again, and said unto him, What be these two olive branches which through the two golden pipes empty the golden oil out of themselves? {Zechariah 4:12}

(32) And he answered me and said, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my lord. {Zechariah 4:13}

(33) Then said he, These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the Lord of the whole earth. {Zechariah 4:14}

(34) And he said unto me, What seest thou? And I answered, I see a flying roll; the length thereof is twenty cubits, and the breadth thereof ten cubits. {Zechariah 5:2}

(35) Then said he unto me, This is the curse that goeth forth over the face of the whole earth: for every one that stealeth shall be cut off as on this side according to it; and every one that sweareth shall be cut off as on that side according to it. {Zechariah 5:3}

(36) I will bring it forth, saith the LORD of hosts, and it shall enter into the house of the thief, and into the house of him that sweareth falsely by my name: and it shall remain in the midst of his house, and shall consume it with the timber thereof and the stones thereof. {Zechariah 5:4}

(37) Then the angel that talked with me went forth, and said unto me, Lift up now thine eyes, and see what is this that goeth forth. {Zechariah 5:5}

(38) And I said, What is it? And he said, This is an ephah that goeth forth. He said moreover, This is their resemblance through all the earth. {Zechariah 5:6}

(39) And he said, This is wickedness. And he cast it into the midst of the ephah; and he cast the weight of lead upon the mouth thereof. {Zechariah 5:8}

(40) Then said I to the angel that talked with me, Whither do these bear the ephah? {Zechariah 5:10}

(41) And he said unto me, To build it an house in the land of Shinar: and it shall be established, and set there upon her own base. {Zechariah 5:11}

(42) Then I answered and said unto the angel that talked with me, What are these, my lord? {Zechariah 6:4}

(43) And the angel answered and said unto me, These are the four spirits of the heavens, which go forth from standing before the Lord of all the earth. {Zechariah 6:5}

(44) And the bay went forth, and sought to go that they might walk to and fro through the earth: and he said, Get you hence, walk to and fro through the earth. So they walked to and fro through the earth. {Zechariah 6:7}

(45) Then cried he upon me, and spake unto me, saying, Behold, these that go toward the north country have quieted my spirit in the north country. {Zechariah 6:8}

(46) And speak unto him, saying, Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Behold the man whose name is The BRANCH; and he shall grow up out of his place, and he shall build the temple of the LORD: {Zechariah 6:12}

(47) And to speak unto the priests which were in the house of the LORD of hosts, and to the prophets, saying, Should I weep in the fifth month, separating myself, as I have done these so many years? {Zechariah 7:3}

(48) Speak unto all the people of the land, and to the priests, saying, When ye fasted and mourned in the fifth and seventh month, even those seventy years, did ye at all fast unto me, even to me? {Zechariah 7:5}

(49) Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Execute true judgment, and shew mercy and compassions every man to his brother: {Zechariah 7:9}

(50) Therefore it is come to pass, that as he cried, and they would not hear; so they cried, and I would not hear, saith the LORD of hosts: {Zechariah 7:13}

(51) Thus saith the LORD of hosts; I was jealous for Zion with great jealousy, and I was jealous for her with great fury. {Zechariah 8:2}

(52) Thus saith the LORD; I am returned unto Zion, and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and Jerusalem shall be called a city of truth; and the mountain of the LORD of hosts the holy mountain. {Zechariah 8:3}

(53) Thus saith the LORD of hosts; There shall yet old men and old women dwell in the streets of Jerusalem, and every man with his staff in his hand for very age. {Zechariah 8:4}

(54) Thus saith the LORD of hosts; If it be marvellous in the eyes of the remnant of this people in these days, should it also be marvellous in mine eyes? saith the LORD of hosts. {Zechariah 8:6}

(55) Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Behold, I will save my people from the east country, and from the west country; {Zechariah 8:7}

(56) Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Let your hands be strong, ye that hear in these days these words by the mouth of the prophets, which were in the day that the foundation of the house of the LORD of hosts was laid, that the temple might be built. {Zechariah 8:9}

(57) But now I will not be unto the residue of this people as in the former days, saith the LORD of hosts. {Zechariah 8:11}

(58) For thus saith the LORD of hosts; As I thought to punish you, when your fathers provoked me to wrath, saith the LORD of hosts, and I repented not: {Zechariah 8:14}

(59) And let none of you imagine evil in your hearts against his neighbour; and love no false oath: for all these are things that I hate, saith the LORD. {Zechariah 8:17}

(60) Thus saith the LORD of hosts; The fast of the fourth month, and the fast of the fifth, and the fast of the seventh, and the fast of the tenth, shall be to the house of Judah joy and gladness, and cheerful feasts; therefore love the truth and peace. {Zechariah 8:19}

(61) Thus saith the LORD of hosts; It shall yet come to pass, that there shall come people, and the inhabitants of many cities: {Zechariah 8:20}

(62) And the inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying, Let us go speedily to pray before the LORD, and to seek the LORD of hosts: I will go also. {Zechariah 8:21}

(63) Thus saith the LORD of hosts; In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, We will go with you: for we have heard that God is with you. {Zechariah 8:23}

(64) And I will strengthen them in the LORD; and they shall walk up and down in his name, saith the LORD. {Zechariah 10:12}

(65) Thus saith the LORD my God; Feed the flock of the slaughter; {Zechariah 11:4}

(66) Whose possessors slay them, and hold themselves not guilty: and they that sell them say, Blessed be the LORD; for I am rich: and their own shepherds pity them not. {Zechariah 11:5}

(67) For I will no more pity the inhabitants of the land, saith the LORD: but, lo, I will deliver the men every one into his neighbour's hand, and into the hand of his king: and they shall smite the land, and out of their hand I will not deliver them. {Zechariah 11:6}

(68) Then said I, I will not feed you: that that dieth, let it die; and that that is to be cut off, let it be cut off; and let the rest eat every one the flesh of another. {Zechariah 11:9}

(69) And I said unto them, If ye think good, give me my price; and if not, forbear. So they weighed for my price thirty pieces of silver. {Zechariah 11:12}

(70) And the LORD said unto me, Cast it unto the potter: a goodly price that I was prised at of them. And I took the thirty pieces of silver, and cast them to the potter in the house of the LORD. {Zechariah 11:13}

(71) And the LORD said unto me, Take unto thee yet the instruments of a foolish shepherd. {Zechariah 11:15}

(72) The burden of the word of the LORD for Israel, saith the LORD, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him. {Zechariah 12:1}

(73) In that day, saith the LORD, I will smite every horse with astonishment, and his rider with madness: and I will open mine eyes upon the house of Judah, and will smite every horse of the people with blindness. {Zechariah 12:4}

(74) And the governors of Judah shall say in their heart, The inhabitants of Jerusalem shall be my strength in the LORD of hosts their God. {Zechariah 12:5}

(75) And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD of hosts, that I will cut off the names of the idols out of the land, and they shall no more be remembered: and also I will cause the prophets and the unclean spirit to pass out of the land. {Zechariah 13:2}

(76) And it shall come to pass, that when any shall yet prophesy, then his father and his mother that begat him shall say unto him, Thou shalt not live; for thou speakest lies in the name of the LORD: and his father and his mother that begat him shall thrust him through when he prophesieth. {Zechariah 13:3}

(77) But he shall say, I am no prophet, I am an husbandman; for man taught me to keep cattle from my youth. {Zechariah 13:5}

(78) And one shall say unto him, What are these wounds in thine hands? Then he shall answer, Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends. {Zechariah 13:6}

(79) Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, and against the man that is my fellow, saith the LORD of hosts: smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered: and I will turn mine hand upon the little ones. {Zechariah 13:7}

(80) And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the LORD, two parts therein shall be cut off and die; but the third shall be left therein. {Zechariah 13:8}

(81) And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried: they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It is my people: and they shall say, The LORD is my God. {Zechariah 13:9}

(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, {Zechariah 1:1}

(2) But my words and my statutes, which I commanded my servants the prophets, did they not take hold of your fathers? and they returned and said, Like as the LORD of hosts thought to do unto us, according to our ways, and according to our doings, so hath he dealt with us. {Zechariah 1:6}

(3) Upon the four and twentieth day of the eleventh month, which is the month Sebat, 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, {Zechariah 1:7}

(4) And the LORD answered the angel that talked with me with good words and comfortable words. {Zechariah 1:13}

(5) Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts. {Zechariah 4:6}

(8) And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Darius, that the word of the LORD came unto Zechariah in the fourth day of the ninth month, even in Chisleu; {Zechariah 7:1}

(9) Then came the word of the LORD of hosts unto me, saying, {Zechariah 7:4}

(10) Should ye not hear the words which the LORD hath cried by the former prophets, when Jerusalem was inhabited and in prosperity, and the cities thereof round about her, when men inhabited the south and the plain? {Zechariah 7:7}

(12) Yea, they made their hearts as an adamant stone, lest they should hear the law, and the words which the LORD of hosts hath sent in his spirit by the former prophets: therefore came a great wrath from the LORD of hosts. {Zechariah 7:12}

(13) Again the word of the LORD of hosts came to me, saying, {Zechariah 8:1}

(14) Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Let your hands be strong, ye that hear in these days these words by the mouth of the prophets, which were in the day that the foundation of the house of the LORD of hosts was laid, that the temple might be built. {Zechariah 8:9}

(15) And the word of the LORD of hosts came unto me, saying, {Zechariah 8:18}

(16) The burden of the word of the LORD in the land of Hadrach, and Damascus shall be the rest thereof: when the eyes of man, as of all the tribes of Israel, shall be toward the LORD. {Zechariah 9:1}

(17) And it was broken in that day: and so the poor of the flock that waited upon me knew that it was the word of the LORD. {Zechariah 11:11}

(18) The burden of the word of the LORD for Israel, saith the LORD, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him. {Zechariah 12:1}

Zechariah 1:7 "Upon the four and twentieth day of the eleventh month, which <is> the month Sebat, 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,"

Joshua 1:8 "This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success."

Zechariah 1:8 "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." Zechariah had all eight visions one night. Though the visions are each distinct, they however form one whole.

Myrtle Trees: Symbolizes Israel. They are 8 feet, but this is at the bottom or a tree crushed that emits a sweet fragrance.

Red horses, speckled, and white: Red symbolizes blood, war & death Speckled symbolizes bay of pail or sorrel. White symbolizes victory

Revelation 6:4 "And there went out another horse <that was> red: and <power> was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword."

Zechariah 1:9 "Then said I, O my lord, what <are> these? And the angel that talked with me said unto me, I will show thee what these <be>."

Zechariah 1:10 "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."

These are they whom the Lord hath sent to walk to and fro..earth: Angels and demons

Job 1:7 "And the LORD said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it."

Zechariah 1:11 "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."

Angel of the Lord: Pre-incarnate Jesus. See my paper Jesus in the Old Testament.

Exodus 3:2-4 "And the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: and he looked, and, behold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush <was> not consumed. {3} And Moses said, I will now turn aside, and see this great sight, why the bush is not burnt. {4} And when the LORD saw that he turned aside to see, God called unto him out of the midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses. And he said, Here <am> I."

Zechariah 1:12 "Then [ angel of the /\ LORD /\ ] answered and said, O /\ LORD /\ of hosts, how long wilt thou not have mercy on [ Jerusalem ] and on the cities of Judah, against which thou hast had indignation these threescore and ten years?" 70 years of Jeremiah.

Jeremiah 25:11 "And this whole land shall be a desolation, <and> an astonishment; and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years."

Zechariah 1:13 "And the /\ LORD /\ answered the angel that talked with me <with> good words <and> comfortable words."

Zechariah 1:14 "So the angel that communed with me said unto me, Cry thou, saying, [ Thus saith the ] /\ LORD /\ of hosts; /\ I /\ am jealous for [ Jerusalem ] and for Zion with a great jealousy."

Jeremiah 25:12 "And it shall come to pass, when seventy years are accomplished, <that> I will punish the king of Babylon, and that nation, saith the LORD, for their iniquity, and the land of the Chaldeans, and will make it perpetual desolations."

Daniel 9:2 "In the first year of his reign I Daniel understood by books the number of the years, whereof the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah the prophet, that he would accomplish seventy years in the desolations of Jerusalem."

Daniel 9:24 "Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy."

(2) So the angel that communed with me said unto me, Cry thou, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; I am jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion with a great jealousy. {Zechariah 1:14}

(3) Therefore thus saith the LORD; I am returned to Jerusalem with mercies: my house shall be built in it, saith the LORD of hosts, and a line shall be stretched forth upon Jerusalem. {Zechariah 1:16}

(4) Cry yet, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; My cities through prosperity shall yet be spread abroad; and the LORD shall yet comfort Zion, and shall yet choose Jerusalem. {Zechariah 1:17}

(5) And I said unto the angel that talked with me, What be these? And he answered me, These are the horns which have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem. {Zechariah 1:19}

(8) And the LORD shall inherit Judah his portion in the holy land, and shall choose Jerusalem again. {Zechariah 2:12}

(9) And the LORD said unto Satan, The LORD rebuke thee, O Satan; even the LORD that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee: is not this a brand plucked out of the fire? {Zechariah 3:2}

(14) So again have I thought in these days to do well unto Jerusalem and to the house of Judah: fear ye not. {Zechariah 8:15}

(15) Yea, many people and strong nations shall come to seek the LORD of hosts in Jerusalem, and to pray before the LORD. {Zechariah 8:22}

(16) Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass. {Zechariah 9:9}

(17) And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem, and the battle bow shall be cut off: and he shall speak peace unto the heathen: and his dominion shall be from sea even to sea, and from the river even to the ends of the earth. {Zechariah 9:10}

(18) Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem. {Zechariah 12:2}

(19) And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it. {Zechariah 12:3}

(20) And the governors of Judah shall say in their heart, The inhabitants of Jerusalem shall be my strength in the LORD of hosts their God. {Zechariah 12:5}

(22) The LORD also shall save the tents of Judah first, that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem do not magnify themselves against Judah. {Zechariah 12:7}

(23) In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that is feeble among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as God, as the angel of the LORD before them. {Zechariah 12:8}

(25) And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn. {Zechariah 12:10}

(26) In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon. {Zechariah 12:11}

(31) All the land shall be turned as a plain from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem: and it shall be lifted up, and inhabited in her place, from Benjamin's gate unto the place of the first gate, unto the corner gate, and from the tower of Hananeel unto the king's winepresses. {Zechariah 14:10}

(32) And men shall dwell in it, and there shall be no more utter destruction; but Jerusalem shall be safely inhabited. Zechariah 14:11

(33) And this shall be the plague wherewith the LORD will smite all the people that have fought against Jerusalem; Their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet, and their eyes shall consume away in their holes, and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth. {Zechariah 14:12}

(34) And Judah also shall fight at Jerusalem; and the wealth of all the heathen round about shall be gathered together, gold, and silver, and apparel, in great abundance. {Zechariah 14:14}

(35) And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles. {Zechariah 14:16}

(8) And to speak unto the priests which were in the house of the LORD of hosts, and to the prophets, saying, Should I weep in the fifth month, separating myself, as I have done these so many years? {Zechariah 7:3}

(9) Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Let your hands be strong, ye that hear in these days these words by the mouth of the prophets, which were in the day that the foundation of the house of the LORD of hosts was laid, that the temple might be built. {Zechariah 8:9}

(10) And it shall come to pass, that as ye were a curse among the heathen, O house of Judah, and house of Israel; so will I save you, and ye shall be a blessing: fear not, but let your hands be strong. {Zechariah 8:13}

(12) Thus saith the LORD of hosts; The fast of the fourth month, and the fast of the fifth, and the fast of the seventh, and the fast of the tenth, shall be to the house of Judah joy and gladness, and cheerful feasts; therefore love the truth and peace. {Zechariah 8:19}

(13) And I will encamp about mine house because of the army, because of him that passeth by, and because of him that returneth: and no oppressor shall pass through them any more: for now have I seen with mine eyes. {Zechariah 9:8}

(14) Mine anger was kindled against the shepherds, and I punished the goats: for the LORD of hosts hath visited his flock the house of Judah, and hath made them as his goodly horse in the battle. {Zechariah 10:3}

(15) And I will strengthen the house of Judah, and I will save the house of Joseph, and I will bring them again to place them; for I have mercy upon them: and they shall be as though I had not cast them off: for I am the LORD their God, and will hear them. {Zechariah 10:6}
