The Book of Zechariah

The book of Zechariah is a record of the messages of the prophet Zechariah.  As with most prophets, Zechariah's message focused on current events for the people of Israel, but also had a secondary meaning, anticipating the life of Jesus.

Zechariah was a contemporary of Haggai.  The messages of both prophets focused on the importance of rebuilding the temple.

Zechariah is sometimes called a minor prophet.  This does not mean he wasn't important, but merely that the book named after him is shorter!  (Compare this to the major prophets, whose books are much longer.)
