Zekharyah

Zechariah ben Berechiah (chs. 1-8); an unknown later author or authors (chs. 9-14) · c. 520-300 BC · Jerusalem (Israel) · scripture

First Zechariah pairs the rebuilding of the Second Temple with a sequence of symbolic night visions echoing Ezekiel's apocalyptic imagery, while the later chapters appended to the book shift toward oracles of eschatological war and a coming king.
