Zechariah (1 oct. 520 av. J.-C. – 1 déc. 518 av. J.-C.)
Description:
Writer(s): ZechariahPlace Written: Jerusalem rebuilt
Writing Completed: 518 B.C.E.
Time Covered: 520-518 B.C.E.
This book of the Hebrew Scriptures identifies its writer as "Zechariah the son of Berechiah the son of Iddo the prophet." (Zec 1:1) It also provides a basis for establishing the time period covered and an approximate date for the composition. The last time indicator found in the book of Zechariah is the fourth day of Chislev in the fourth year of Darius' reign (about December 1, 518 B.C.E.). (7:1) Accordingly, this book could not have been committed to writing before the close of 518 B.C.E. Since it was in the "eighth month in the second year of Darius" (October/November 520 B.C.E.) that "the word of Jehovah occurred to Zechariah" (1:1), the book covers a period of at least two years.
