The contribution of this commentary to the understanding of the book ofZechariah is mainly in four areas. The first is close attention tophilological detail, with a special focus on textual criticism, lexicalsemantics, and literary wordplay. A second area of interest is in thehistory of interpretation of the book, and takes into account a wide rangeof exegetical material, from rabbinic and patristic times to the present.A third area of interest is in intertextuality. Many passages become fullyintelligible only when they are understood as alluding to earlierScripture. Finally, the commentary has an interest in Christiantheological interpretation. The commentary is also remarkable in that itbreaks with the traditional division of the book into two parts, andargues that it consists instead of three independent and quite differentparts, each of which is attributable to the prophet after whom the book isnamed.
