During the 400 years between the books of Malachi and Matthew, known as the intertestamental period, several significant events occurred. These include the rise of the Greek Empire under Alexander the great, the division of his empire into four kingdoms, the Maccabean Revolt in Judea, and the eventual rule of the Roman Empire over the region. This period also saw the development of various Jewish sects, such as the Pharisees and Sadducees, and the translation of the Hebrew Bible into Greek (the Septuagint).

Why was the inter-testament period referred to as the 400 silent years?

I think the reason is God did not speak through prophets during that period, whereas the Old Testament ends with Malachi and the New Testament begins with Jesus and John the Baptist. It may simply be because the Christian Bible does not acknowledge any texts written during that time as the inspired Word of God. There was roughly a 450-year gap between the writing of Malachi and the writing of Matthew.

What happened during the four hundred years of Malachi's prophecy and the appearance of John the Baptist?

The 400 years of silence refers to the time between the Old Testament and New Testaments, during which God did not speak to the Jewish people. The 400 years of silence began with the warning that closed the Old Testament: "Behold, I am going to send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and terrible day of the LORD. In fact, he [Elijah] already has come, but he wasn't recognized, and was badly mistreated by many... Then the disciples realized he was speaking of John the Baptist."-Matthew 17:10-13.
