Rev. David Boisclair, pastor of Faith and Bethesda Lutheran Churches in North St. Louis County, Missouri, joins host Rev. AJ Espinosa to study Zechariah 1.

As the twin prophet of Haggai, Zechariah provided a heavenly perspective on God’s command to rebuild the Temple. Although this young man bore the stamp of one born and raised in Babylon, He confirms that God has not changed despite shifting circumstances and uncertain times.

In a dream he sees a man on a red horse in the midst of a glen of myrtle trees. He is no ordinary man; he is “the angel of the LORD,” the commander of the angel horsemen who patrol the earth. He pleads with God in behalf of Judah, and God promises to rebuild Jerusalem and to dispatch the “four horns” who have scattered Judah. In this we have a vision of our Lord Jesus Christ, superior to all the angels of God, who pleads for us sinners as our priestly intercessor to secure our forgiveness and salvation.
