Zechariah is a book of prophecies of a contemporary of Haggai. Zechariah urges the people to rebuild the Temple for he too believes in the imminent coming of the messianic kingdom. Both Zechariah and Haggai are concerned with the messianic hope and establishing Judah’s role in the fulfillment of that glorious hope.

Zechariah 9

9:10 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.
