Zechariah's vision of the four horns and four craftsmen, by Christoph Weigel. The four horns (Hebrew: ארבע קרנות ’arba‘ qərānōṯ) and four craftsmen (ארבעה חרשים ’arbā‘āh ḥārāšîm, also translated "engravers" or "artisans") are a vision found in Book of Zechariah, in Zechariah 1:21 in traditional English texts.
Zechariah 4 is the fourth of the 14 chapters in the Book of Zechariah in the Hebrew Bible or the Old Testament of the Christian Bible. [1] [2] [3] This book contains the prophecies attributed to the prophet Zechariah, and is a part of the Book of the Twelve Minor Prophets. [4]
The Book of Zechariah is a Jewish text attributed to Zechariah, a Hebrew prophet of the late 6th century BC. In the Hebrew Bible, the text is included as part of the Twelve Minor Prophets, itself a part of the second division of that work. In the Christian Old Testament, the Book of Zechariah is considered to be a separate book.
In the Septuagint Greek version of Zechariah 3 the name Iesous and term diabolos are identical to the Greek terms of Matthew 4. [18] Matthew presents the three scriptural passages cited by Jesus ( Deut 8:3 , Deut 6:13 , and Deut 6:16 ) not in their order in the Book of Deuteronomy , but in the sequence of the trials of Israel as they wandered ...
Matthew 4:10 is the tenth verse of the fourth chapter of the Gospel of Matthew in the New Testament. Jesus has rebuffed two earlier temptations by Satan. The devil has thus transported Jesus to the top of a great mountain and offered him control of the world to Jesus if he agrees to worship him. In this verse, Jesus rejects this temptation. [1]
The Hebrew scriptures were an important source for the New Testament authors. [13] There are 27 direct quotations in the Gospel of Mark, 54 in Matthew, 24 in Luke, and 14 in John, and the influence of the scriptures is vastly increased when allusions and echoes are included, [14] with half of Mark's gospel being made up of allusions to and citations of the scriptures. [15]
Zechariah is then understood as representing the last of the martyrs recorded in the Masoretic Text (since the Hebrew sequence of books ends with 2 Chronicles). [3] Dale C. Allison notes that Luke 11:49–51 echoes 2 Chron 24:17–25 by referring to the sending of the prophets, the blood of Zechariah and the temple precinct. [4]
Zerubbabel's name is mentioned four times throughout Zechariah 1–8, and all of these instances occur in one short oracle written in chapter 4. Any other references to Zerubbabel throughout this book are guesses or theories as to his significance. Zechariah 4:1–3 gives a vision that was had by Zechariah of a lampstand with a bowl on it.
