Zechariah was given visions of the return of the glory of the Lord to Zion. Malachi preached repentance, covenant justice and restoration of proper temple worship. Andrew Hill's commentary on these oracles shows how they remain timely for the Christian church's worship and mission in the world. --from publisher description.
