Zechariah's Last Four Visions

V. The Vision of the Lampstand and the Olive Trees 4:1-14

A.  The Vision Itself  1-5

B.  The Lampstand Explained   6-10
     1. The Power  -- v. 6

Haggai 2:5; Isaiah 40:4

     2.  The Promise  -- v. 7-10

        
C.  The Olive Trees Explained  11-14

We know that Christ is a PROPHET (like Zechariah and Haggai)a PRIEST (like Joshua) and a KING (like Zerubbabel).

VI. The Vision of the Flying Scroll 5:1-4

This is the purifying of the people of God.  1 Peter 4:17 – It is time for judgment to begin at the house of God. And if it begins with us, what 	will the outcome be for those who obey not the gospel of God?

This vision, in symbolic form, is the re-instatement of the Moral Law in the land. Stealing is the 8th commandment. Swearing is the 3rd commandment.

The vision has to do with covenant-breaking. Leviticus 19:11-12
The language is such that Zechariah's hearers would understand -- Ezra 6:11

VII. The Woman in the Basket 5:5-11

The removal of this basket is good news for the community. Here, God removes the covenant-breakers from the land.

This would not be fully fulfilled until the New Covenant Jeremiah 31:31-34

VIII. Vision of the Four Chariots 6:1-8

A.  The Four Chariots 1-5

B.  Their Mission  6-8
