Zacarías 1:1 Meaning and Commentary

Zechariah 1:1

In the eighth month
The month Marchesvan, called the month Bul, in ( 1 Kings 6:38 ) which answers to part of our October, and part of November: this was but two months from the first prophecy of Haggai, ( Haggai 1:1 ) and but a few days after his second, ( Haggai 2:1 ) so near were the prophecies of these two prophets together: in the second year of Darius:

Zacarías 1:1 In-Context

1 Un llamado a volver al Señor
En noviembre
del segundo año del reinado de Darío, el Señor
le dio este mensaje al profeta Zacarías, hijo de Berequías, nieto de Iddo:
2 «Yo, el Señor
, estuve muy enojado con los antepasados de ustedes.
3 Por lo tanto, dile al pueblo: “El Señor
de los Ejércitos Celestiales dice: ‘Regresen a mí y yo me volveré a ustedes, dice el Señor
de los Ejércitos Celestiales’.
4 No sean como sus antepasados que no querían escuchar ni prestar atención cuando los antiguos profetas les dijeron: ‘El Señor
de los Ejércitos Celestiales dice: “Apártense de sus malos caminos y abandonen todas sus prácticas malvadas”’.
5 »”¿Dónde están ahora sus antepasados? Ellos y los profetas murieron hace mucho tiempo.
