Listen to Zacarias 1:5
5 “Onde estão agora os seus antepassados? E os profetas, acaso vivem eles para sempre?

Zacarias 1:5 Meaning and Commentary

Zechariah 1:5

Your fathers, where [are] they?
&c.] They are not in the land of the living; they perished by the sword of the Chaldeans, or died in captivity: and the prophets, do they live for ever?
meaning either the false prophets, as Hananiah and Shemaiah, ( Jeremiah 28:17 ) ( 29:32 ) or the true prophets of the Lord; and the words may be considered as a prevention of an objection the people might make, taken from their prophets dying in common with their fathers; and so the Targum paraphrases them, "and if you should say, the prophets, do they live for ever?" which is followed by Jarchi, and embraced by many interpreters: the answer is, it is true they died; but then their words live, and have had their full accomplishment.

Zacarias 1:5 In-Context

3 Por isso, diga ao povo: Assim diz o SENHOR dos ExĂ©rcitos: Voltem para mim, e eu me voltarei para vocĂȘs”, diz o SENHOR dos ExĂ©rcitos.
4 “NĂŁo sejam como os seus antepassados aos quais os antigos profetas proclamaram: ‘Assim diz o SENHOR dos ExĂ©rcitos: Deixem os seus caminhos e as suas mĂĄs obras’. Mas eles nĂŁo me ouviram nem me deram atenção”, declara o SENHOR.
5 “Onde estão agora os seus antepassados? E os profetas, acaso vivem eles para sempre?
6 Mas as minhas palavras e os meus decretos, que ordenei aos meus servos, os profetas, alcançaram os seus antepassados e os levaram a converter-se e a dizer: ‘O SENHOR dos ExĂ©rcitos fez conosco o que os nossos caminhos e prĂĄticas mereciam, conforme prometeu’.”
7 No vigĂ©simo quarto dia do dĂ©cimo primeiro mĂȘs, o mĂȘs de sebate, no segundo ano do reinado de Dario, a palavra do SENHOR veio ao profeta Zacarias, filho de Berequias e neto de Ido.
