GODS MESSAGE TO ISRAEL
In Zechariah 1:3, God pleads to Israel, “This is what the Lord Almighty says: ‘Return to Me,’ declares the Lord Almighty, ‘and I will return to you.'” Zechariah’s message is messianic and future-looking and reveals much about the end times in which we live. Scholars list 41 citations or allusions to Zechariah’s prophecies in the New Testament (Nestle, pp. 670-1), indicating that its message goes far beyond the immediate time it was written. Looking at the eight visions together, you can see it is God’s message to restore Israel and the nations to their right relationship with one another, and to Him as the God of the world.
