TSNTyndale Study Notes:

7:1-14 Zechariah’s sermons were prompted by delegates from Bethel who posed a practical question (7:2-3). Although Zechariah answered the question later (8:18-19), he responded first with rhetorical questions that focused on the people’s self-centered motives (7:5-6). Zechariah then outlined God’s expectations for Israel (7:8-10; see Jer 22:3) and recounted what had happened to those who disobeyed previously (Zech 7:11-14).
