Are you kidding. I find the book of Zechariah interesting.
I think that the book of Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy are much more BORING and difficult to understand by a MODERN mind.

Ok

V 1-4 seems self explanatory enough!

V5-11 can be understood when read along with Rev. 17v3-6, then further.

The flying roll is an allegory of laws that is being passed and which everyone is aware of.

The woman sitting in an ephah or basket is the same woman being refered to in Rev 17 v - 6. She is Babylon, the great, mother of all prostitutes and obscenities in the world. The Ephah she was sitting on is the scarlet beast that had seven heads and ten horns with blasphemy written all over it.

Actually, some have translated Rome, the catholic church, new world order as the scarlet beast she was sitting on.

Try to read for your self, Rev 17, you will understand Zechariah.

The vision of the flying roll (scroll) was a vision of the judgement of God on those who violated God's law specifically by stealing and lying (5:1-4) The woman in the basket personified wickedness and so this vision showed that wickedness would not only be severely punished according to the vision of the flying scroll but also banished according to the vision of the woman in the basket (5:6 - 9).

The woman in the basket was carried away to Babylon (the land of Shinar) which had at the time become a symbol, the center of world idolatry and wickedness. This woman was a picture to Zechariah that wickedness and sin would be taken away from Isreal and one day sin will be romoved from the entire earth.

You cannot understand the book of Zechariah if you dont know the audience the book was written for initially and the purpose of the book.

The book was written to address the Jews in Jerusalem who had returned from their captivity in Babylon. the exiles had returned from Babylon to rebuild the Temple, but the work has been delayed; hence, Haggai and Zechariah confronted the people with their task and encouraged them to complete it. they also gave the people the message of hope about the coming King, the great deliverer of Isreal - the Lord Jesus;(Chapter 9:9,10) although He did not come untill about 480 years after this period.

Christians must also have it at the back of their mind that the Lord Jesus is coming; it might seems its taking long just as it was that the period of Zechriah, Haggai and Malachi, but He will surely come and at this time as a King. Are you ready for His coming?!

jacobscros: obadiah pls according to your biblical knowledge what happens when a person dies physically on earth?
WHEN YOU PHYSICALLY DIE ON EARTH YOUR SPIRIT RETURNS TO THE LORD WHO GAVE IT ( ECCLESIASTES 12 VS 7 ). YOU REST FOR 3 TO 4 GENERATIONS ( ROUGHLY 75 TO 100 YEARS )( EXODUS 20 VS 5 ). AFTER YOUR REST YOU ARE RETURNED TO EARTH TO RECIEVE JUDGEMENT FOR SINS COMMITTED IN THAT PREVIOUS LIFE ( ECCLESIASTES 3 VS 16 ). ONE JUDGEMENT PER LIFE LIVED. ( HEBREWS 9 VS 27 ). JUDGEMENT DOES NOT ACCRUE TILL ONE DAY CALLED JUDGEMENT DAY. THE DAY CALLED JUDGEMENT DAY WHEN CHRIST COMES IS FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS AND THE FOLLOWING PEOPLE
1-TO END THE WICKED RULERSHIP OF MAN ON EARTH ALSO CALLED THE ERA OF THE GENTILES WHICH STARTED WITH THE BABYLONIAN EMPIRE AND WILL END WITH THE VIRGIN DAUGHTER OF BABYLON ALSO CALLED AMERICA. YOU CAN SEE THE TRAJECTORY PATH OF THE GENTILE EMPIRE IN DANIEL 7. SO THE LORDS JUDGEMENT WILL BE TO USE NUKES ( YES NUKES IS IN THE BIBLE IN ZECHARIAH 5 VS 1-4 AND OTHER PARTS. ITS CALLED THE ARK OF TESTAMENT TOO. ). SO BASICALLY NUKES WILL DESTROY THOSE EMPIRES WHO COULDNT GET AWAY FROM WICKEDNESS FROM THE TIME IT STARTED TO THE TIME IT FINISHED. AMERICA IS THE MAIN DESTRUCTION ZZONE

2-TO RETURN THE KINDOM TO THE SAINTS ( THE 144,000 WHO ARE THE FIRST FRUITS. ALL ISRAELITES OR WHAT YOU CALL NEGROS. RIGHTEOUS MEN SELECTED FROM THE WHOLE WORLD BEFORE THE FLOOD. ) ( DANIEL 7 VS 18 )

3-DESTROY ALL THOSE WHO DESTROY THE EARTH ( REV 11 VS 18 ) ( YOU AND I KNOW WHO THAT IS )

4-DESTROY THOSE WHO COULDNT STAY AWAY FROM WICKEDNESS DESPITE HAVING OVER 4000 YEARS OF WICKEDNESS TILL NOW. THEY HAD 4000 YEARS ( ROUGHLY 20 TO 30 LIFETIMES ) TO HAVE BEEN TIRED OF WICKEDNESS AND RETURNED TO THE LORD BUT THEY DIDNT. THEY GOT PUNISHED EACH TIME THEY RETURNED BUT AFTER PUNISHMENT THEY STILL CONTINUED IN THEIR WICKEDNESS. THESE WILL BE DESTROYED IN NUKES.

5-TO RETURN RECOMPENSE TO ALL THOSE WHO TOOK ISRAEL IN SLAVERY BY HAVING THEM AS SLAVES IN THE LAND OF THE LORD ( HEAVEN ). YES THERE WILL BE SLAVERY IN HEAVEN. ( ISAIAH 14 VS 2 ) ( REVELATION 13 VS 9 ) ( JEREMIAH 30 VS 16 ). THERE WILL BE WHITE AND ARAB SLAVERY. THOSE WHO TOOK US IN SLAVERY BEFORE CHRIST CAME WERE OPERATING UNDER ( ROMANS 4 VS 15 ). THEY WERE BEING USED AS THE LORDS KOBOKO ( HABBAKUK 1 VS 14 ) ( 2 SAMUEL 7 VS 14 ) HOWEVER AFTER CHRIST CAME THE WHOLE WORLD WAS UNITED UNDER THE LAW ( EPHESIANS 2 VS 14 ) SO ANYONE WHO TOOK ISRAEL IN SLAVERY AFTER THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE NEW TESTAMENT WHICH UNITES BOTH JEW AND GENTILES UNDER THE LAW, IS GOING IN SLAVERY WHEN CHRIST RETURNS. THAT WOULD BE CAUCASIANS ( DEUT 28 VS 68 ) AND ARABS ( JOEL 3 VS 8 ) ( AMOS 1 VS 6 )
