Zechariah 8 Bible Study Verses 18-23

Tomorrow marks Tzom Tammuz (Fast commemorating breaching of the walls of Jerusalem before the destruction of the Second Temple) for Hebrew Year 5781 ocurrs at dawn on Sunday, 27 June 2021.

I am going to watch the Spirit and see if while the calendar was calculated off a month, if indeed that is true or not.

My gut tells me if God still has Israel’s Calendar in His Timeline alignment, then we should see something occur tomorrow pretty significant. Will stand, watch and wait..

Zechariah 8 Bible Study Fourth Month
First, God mentions the fourth month. And there are two passages in the book of Jeremiah that help us figure out why the Jews were fasting and mourning to commemorate that month.

The first reference is Jeremiah 39:2 where we’re told…

KJV Jeremiah 39:2 And in the eleventh year of Zedekiah, in the fourth month, the ninth day of the month, the [city/city wall] was [broken up/breached/broken through].

And then this event is restated in Jeremiah 52:6 where Jeremiah records this…

KJV Jeremiah 52:6 And in the fourth month, in the ninth day of the month, the famine was sore in the city, so that there was no bread for the people of the land.

KJV Jeremiah 52:7 Then the [city/city wall] was broken [up/into], and all the men of war fled, and went forth out of the city by night by the way of the gate between the two walls, which was by the king’s garden; (now the Chaldeans were by the city round about:) and they went by the way of the plain.

So, in summary, what happened in the fourth month about 70 years prior to the question asked in this passage in Zechariah? The Babylonians broke into the city of Jerusalem through the city wall. And the Jews that went into exile in Babylon would every year mourn and fast as they remembered this breach of the wall of their beloved city.

Please repent and accept the free gift of Jesus Christ’s death on the cross for payment for your sins..
