SUDDEN RECOGNITION
Zechariah Part 3
Zechariah 12-13:1 Presented by Pastor Justin Greene April 13, 2014 In February 2002 seventy-seven-year old Frances Foster of Brooklyn was found unconscious on her bathroom floor and mistakenly declared dead by paramedics. For hours the error went undetected until she was being placed in a body bag. According to the womans daughter, a medical examiners official said her mother suddenly moved and opened her eyes and he jumped back, startled. His shock is understandable! The woman had suffered a stroke and was immediately hospitalized when the mistake was discovered. Of course, this woman did not actually die and come back to life, but the nation of Israel has died twice and been resurrected each time. From the destruction of Jerusalem in 586 B.C. until Zerubbabel, Joshua, Zechariah, and the group of about fifty thousand Jews returned soon after 539
1
B.C., the nation of Israel was dead and buried. Then God supernaturally raised this lifeless nation back to life just as he had promised through the prophet Ezekiel (Ezek. 37:1-14). After the Roman destruction, Israel was once more dispersed among the nations, and for almost two thousand years the nation did not exist. But on May 14, 1948, Israel declared itself an independent state and incredibly came back to life once more. Historically, dead nations usually stay that way, and no record of any other nations revival after such a long period is known. Yet everywhere in Scripture Israel is presented as dwelling in their land when Christ returns. As in Zechariahs day, Israels reestablishment in modern times is a result of Gods incredible power. Israel is in a very precarious position today. It is beset by internal and external threats of titanic proportions. We might wonder if this tiny nation can possibly survive. In chapters 12-14 Zechariah provides a panoramic overview of Israels future. So read and be amazed as Gods prophet of twenty-five hundred years ago answers the question, What will happen to Israel?

BACKDROP
Zechariah 12:1-9
The nations will be drunk with power ... but will herniate themselves trying to move a stone.
Note: This section is a short restatement of earlier passages ... it is only the setting for the Jewel.

Someday every knee will bow before the One who was
pierced for our transgressions (Isaiah 53:5).
