CLAIM: God’s mercy is greater than the depth of Israel’s sin. Israel’s authority as a kingdom of priests will be fully restored as the Lord completely cleanses the entire nation through the work of the Messiah, and restores her priestly authority to minister before Him. In the days of Zerubbabel and Joshua (516 BC), God restored the temple and priestly ministry to Israel, despite the gravity of her previous sin. Israel’s national salvation is dependent upon her national acceptance of the atoning work of Jesus (Zech. 3:9; 12:10 cf. Rom.10:12; 11:26).
Mixed.
All of Zechariah points both to the second temple restoration, as well as the Messianic era, the Kingdom, or in other words, the church age. The people were symbolic of what was to come, and point to our day. With exception of the last verse in the chapter, all could be considered complete. The last verse seems to indicate a greater increase of what is already available.
