“On that day a fountain will be opened to the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, to cleanse them from sin and impurity” (1). Zechariah’s prophecies encouraged the returned exiles that ruined Jerusalem still had a future. New Testament authors recognized that these promises of God’s salvation were accomplished through the Messiah. The “Shepherd” was indeed struck (and pierced, 12:10), and the sheep scattered (13:7), and yet through Jesus’ suffering, men and women are redeemed (John 19:37, Matt 26:31).

“On that day living water will flow out from Jerusalem ...” (14:8). God fulfilled His promise to rescue His people, and we trust that the story is not over. One day, “the Lord will be King over the whole earth” (14:9).
