Gill's Notes on the Bible
And it came to pass, in the fourth year of King Darius,.... Near two years after the foundation of the temple was laid, Haggai 2:10 and near two years before it was finished, Ezra 6:15 when the work was going forward, and there was a great deal of reason to believe it would be completed:
[that] the word of the Lord came unto Zechariah, in the fourth [day] of the ninth month, [even] in Chisleu: which answers to part of our October, and part of November.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
In the fourth year of Darius - Two years after the series of visions, shown to him, and two years before the completion of the temple. Chisleu being December, it was the end of 518 b.c.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
CHAPTER VII
Some Jews being sent from those who remained at Babylon to
inquire of the priests and prophets at Jerusalem whether they
were still bound to observe those fasts which had been
appointed on occasion of the destruction of Jerusalem, and kept
during the captivity, the prophet is commanded to take this
opportunity of enforcing upon them the weightier matters of
the law, judgment and mercy, that they might not incur such
calamities as befell their fathers. He also intimates that in
their former fasts they had regarded themselves more than God;
and that they had rested too much on the performance of
external rites, although the former prophets had largely
insisted on the superior excellence of moral duties, 1-14.
NOTES ON CHAP. VII
Verse Zechariah 7:1. The fourth year of King Darius — Two years after they began to rebuild the temple, see Zechariah 1:1, A.M. 3486.
The ninth month, even in Chisleu — This answers to a part of our November and December. The names of the month appear only under and after the captivity.
