  • Malachi 1-4, Isaiah 61-62

    Malachi 1 - 1:11 . 

    Malachi 2 - 5:08 . 

    Malachi 3 - 10:11 . 

    Malachi 4 - 14:38 . 

    Isaiah 61 - 16:08 . 

    Isaiah 62 - 18:55 . 

    Not much is known about the prophet Malachi, (whose name means “my messenger”), but contextual clues suggest that this was written after the exile had ended. Enthusiasm for right worship of God had waned, and Malachi exhorts the priests to honor the Lord. Uniquely, Malachi presents his prophesy using a conversational pattern between the priests and the Lord God, wherein God makes a claim, the priests respond by asking questions, and subsequently the Lord answers. This book is a mixture of indictment and hope, pointing those who are indifferent to God’s ordinances to worship rightly while encouraging the faithful to stay the course and receive the Lord’s favor.

    Zechariah 12 - 1:15 . 

    Zechariah 13 - 4:39 . 

    Zechariah 14 - 7:51 . 

    Isaiah 59 - 13:11 . 

    Isaiah 60 - 17:59 . 

    In our final episode in the book of Zechariah, the prophet proclaims that Jerusalem will be secure from warring nations. They will be blessed further through spiritual reconciliation with God. He will pour out a spirit of grace and prayer on the house of David and on Jerusalem, and they will mourn for the one they pierced. On that day a fountain will be opened to wash away their sin and impurity. Living water from Jerusalem will flow in abundance, Like the prophet Isaiah, Zechariah predicts that the nations will come from all around to worship the God of Israel.

  • Zechariah 9-11, Isaiah 57-58

    Zechariah 9 - 1:09 . 

    Zechariah 10 - 5:06 . 

    Zechariah 11 - 8:34 . 

    Isaiah 57 - 12:32 . 

    Isaiah 58 - 17:13 . 

    Zechariah prophesies that judgment is coming for Zion’s enemies, but in a surprising reversal after their punishment, God will call them to be a part of his people as a remnant. Later, Zion is called to rejoice, for their king is coming. He is described as being victorious, righteous and humble all at once, even riding a donkey instead of a mule as was customary for kings. The Lord promises to restore his people and defend them from their enemies. Finally, Zechariah takes on the role of a shepherd of those sheep who were raised for purpose of being slaughtered as a symbolic parallel, for the shepherds had not cared for them; they only used them for personal gain.

  • Zechariah 5-8, Isaiah 56

    Zechariah 5 - 1:13 . 

    Zechariah 6 - 3:34 . 

    Zechariah 7 - 7:21 . 

    Zechariah 8 - 10:13 . 

    We’re picking up where we left off in the collection of visions that Zechariah saw, today looking at visions six, seven and eight. The vision of the flying scroll is an indication that God’s just law is about to be executed in the land. Wickedness is personified as a woman who is taken captive and sent away to Babylon to be worshiped. The eighth vision, like the first, includes four horses who patrol the earth, signifying God’s sovereignty over all creation. After this Zechariah addresses questions of fasting and declares that a day of fruitfulness and feasting is coming for those who seek the Lord.

  • Zechariah 1-4, Isaiah 54-55
    The prophet Zechariah was a contemporary of the prophet Haggai; both prophesy to those exiles returning to Jerusalem, but while Haggai focuses mainly on rebuilding the temple, Zechariah sees visions of a future king. As such is the case, the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John incorporate more passages from Zechariah than from any other prophet. In today’s reading, Zechariah prophesies through night visions; we’ll cover 5 out of 8 of them in this episode. One is of horsemen who patrol the world, another of horns and craftsmen, another of a man who surveys and measures Jerusalem, a fourth of the high priest Joshua and a servant called the Branch, and a fifth of a gold lampstand.

  • 2 Peter 1-3, Isaiah 52-53
    In Peter’s second letter, the apostle writes to encourage the church to confirm their calling and election by exercising the divine power given to them for life and godliness. Peter warns them against false teachers who claim Christ but in reality are self-glorifying and treacherous, exploiting the church in their greed with made-up stories. Finally, Peter encourages the church to patiently await Christ’s second coming, for the judgment of the wicked is sure. Since this is a short epistle we’ll have a double dose of Isaiah, reading chapters 52-53, wherein the suffering servant is pierced because of our rebellion and crushed because of our iniquities, but we are healed by his wounds.

As such is the case, the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John incorporate more passages from Zechariah than from any other prophet.

  • Zephaniah, 2 Thessalonians, Psalm 148
    The prophet Zephaniah extends an urgent invitation to seek the Lord and only the Lord. At the time of Zephaniah’s prophecy, even the priests in the house of the Lord were worshipping other gods. He predicts that a day of the Lord is approaching to eliminate those who rebel against Him, but in His grace, he will leave a meek and humble remnant. Later, in 2 Thessalonians, Paul writes to the church concerning how they should live in light of Christ’s impending return. Rather than live idle lives, they are encouraged to work until that day comes, giving glory to God by loving each other well and committing themselves to faithful obedience.

  • Micah 5-7, Isaiah 50-51
    As we finish out the second half of the book of Micah, we’ll immediately see another crystal clear prophecy; this one predicts that the coming Messiah will be born in Bethlehem, a small town that was unlikely to have anything significant take place within it. God promises that one day he will remove those earthly and idolatrous occupations which keep his people from worshipping him rightly, asserting that nations who have not obeyed him will receive his anger and wrath. Finally, Micah looks past the coming destruction of Israel to declare the future hope of redemption for those who repent from their sin and serve the Lord.
    24 min
  • Micah 1-4, Isaiah 48-49
    Given the time frame established by the prophet himself, Micah’s prophecies are astoundingly clear and accurate, as he clearly pronounces the fall of Samaria, the destruction of Jerusalem, and the coming captivity in Babylon. The people had grown comfortable in religious activity but they were excusing sin and denying the possibility of judgment. He urges God’s people to consider the nature and character of God Himself, and in so doing, they ought to repent in light of his justice and holiness.
