Zechariah receives the night visions

Zechariah saw horsemen, horns and craftsmen, a measuring line, Joshua the high priest cleansed, a lampstand with olive trees, a flying scroll, a woman carried to Shinar, and four chariots. Together the visions promised God's return to Jerusalem, the removal of guilt, and the completion of the temple not by might, but by His Spirit (Zechariah 1:7-6:8).
