Zechariah
"This is the curse that goes out"
Text: Zechariah 5:3
THE COVENANT OF GOD
The Covenant that God established with Israel had two important component parts:
1. The promise of blessing from God (Deuteronomy 28:1-14).
2. The warning of cursing from God (Deuteronomy 28:15-68).
Israel had broken the Covenant time and again. The people had little or no regard for the Lord and His words of warning.
THE FLYING SCROLL
This Vision of the Flying Scroll would serve as a strong word of warning to the nation.
“Then he said to me,
‘This is the curse that goes out over the face of the whole earth:
“Every thief shall be expelled,” according to this side of the scroll;
and, “Every perjurer shall be expelled,” according to that side of it.'”
Zechariah 5:3
