At first glance it seems that Chapter 7 is out of place in Zechariah. We have seen the prophet Zechariah as a messenger of hope. Yet chapter 7 seems a world apart from ‘hope’. A better understanding of the context of this chapter makes it much clearer why this chapter and its message is here in the middle of this book. God’s demand for perfection is something that we all need reminding of.
