Answer:

Matthew Henry's Book Synopsis of Zechariah: - "This prophecy is suitable to all, as the scope is to reprove for sin, and threaten God's judgments against the impenitent, and to encourage those that feared God, with assurances of the mercy God had in store for his church, and especially of the coming of the Messiah, and the setting up of his kingdom in the world."

Was Zechariah the first to prophesy Jesus' death?

A:Some say that they can see in Zechariah 12:10-11 a possible prophecy of the death of Jesus. However, this would be a strange prophecy as it talks of the mourning for the god Hadadrimmon, considered to be a manifestation of Baal and scarcely a likeness of Jesus.A more objective and dispassionate reading of the Old Testament finds no mention of the death of Jesus. It is therefore a matter of faith and belief whether you see in Zechariah any prophecy of the death of Jesus, and also whether you see any earlier prophecy of Jesus' death.
