Contextual Overview

⁸ Then this message from Adonai came to Z'kharyah: ⁹ "In the past Adonai -Tzva'ot said, ‘Administer true justice. Let everyone show mercy and compassion to his brother. ¹⁰ Don't oppress widows, orphans, foreigners or poor people. Don't plot evil against each other.' ¹¹ But they wouldn't listen, they stubbornly turned their shoulder away and stopped up their ears, so that they wouldn't have to hear it. ¹² Yes, they made their hearts as hard as a diamond, so that they wouldn't hear the Torah and the messages that Adonai -Tzva'ot had sent by his Spirit through the earlier prophets. This is why great anger came from Adonai -Tzva'ot; ¹³ and it came about that just as they hadn't listened when he called, so Adonai -Tzva'ot said, ‘I won't listen when they call; ¹⁴ but with the power of a whirlwind I will disperse them among all the nations which they have not known.' Thus the land was left desolate after them, so that no one came or went. They had turned a pleasant land into a desert."

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the word of the Lord came unto Zechariah, saying. Giving him orders to repeat what the former prophets had said, and to urge the same things on the people which they had before rejected, the rejection of which had issued in their ruin.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Instead of quoting the former prophets, Zechariah gives the substance of their exhortations, as renewed to himself.
