Contextual Overview

1 And in the fourth yere of king Darius, the word of the lorde came vnto Zacharia in the fourth [day] of the ninth moneth, which is called Casleu, 2 What time as Sarasar & Rogommelech, and the men that were with them, sent vnto the house of God for to pray before the Lorde: 3 And that they shoulde speake vnto the priestes which were in the house of the Lorde of hoastes, and to the prophetes, saying: should I wepe in the fifth moneth, & abstayne as I haue done nowe certaine yeres? 4 Then came the worde of the Lorde of hoastes vnto me, saying: 5 Speake vnto al the people of the land, and to the priestes, & say: When ye fasted and mourned in the fifth & seuenth moneth now this threescore & ten yeres, did ye fast vnto me? 6 When ye did eate also & drincke, did ye not eate & drincke for your owne selues? 7 Are not these the wordes which the Lord spake by his prophetes aforetime, when Hierusalem was yet inhabited & wealthy, she and the cities round about her, whe there dwelt men both toward the south and in the playne countreys?

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And it came to pass, in the fourth year of King Darius,.... Near two years after the foundation of the temple was laid, Haggai 2:10 and near two years before it was finished, Ezra 6:15 when the work was going forward, and there was a great deal of reason to believe it would be completed:

[that] the word of the Lord came unto Zechariah, in the fourth [day] of the ninth month, [even] in Chisleu: which answers to part of our October, and part of November.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

In the fourth year of Darius - Two years after the series of visions, shown to him, and two years before the completion of the temple. Chisleu being December, it was the end of 518 b.c.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER VII

Some Jews being sent from those who remained at Babylon to

inquire of the priests and prophets at Jerusalem whether they

were still bound to observe those fasts which had been

appointed on occasion of the destruction of Jerusalem, and kept

during the captivity, the prophet is commanded to take this

opportunity of enforcing upon them the weightier matters of

the law, judgment and mercy, that they might not incur such

calamities as befell their fathers. He also intimates that in

their former fasts they had regarded themselves more than God;

and that they had rested too much on the performance of

external rites, although the former prophets had largely

insisted on the superior excellence of moral duties, 1-14.

NOTES ON CHAP. VII

Verse Zechariah 7:1. The fourth year of King Darius — Two years after they began to rebuild the temple, see Zechariah 1:1, A.M. 3486.

The ninth month, even in Chisleu — This answers to a part of our November and December. The names of the month appear only under and after the captivity.
