With fourteen chapters, the book of Zechariah is the longest of the twelve books that make up what we typically refer to as the ‘minor prophets’. You could say it is the major of the minors.

It is a large collection of somewhat bizarre dreams and visions mostly, and it belongs to a particular genre of Scripture called ‘apocalyptic’. Part of what that means ironically is that it is hard to understand. (Think ‘the book of Revelation’) Even the authors didn’t understand it when they saw it!

But the apocalyptic materials are not inaccessible. Consider this: The book of Zechariah is quoted in the gospel accounts of the NT throughout the last week prior to the crucifixion of Jesus more than any other book. We’re going to be talking about Him.
