Commentary on Zechariah 1:2
God's message begins bluntly: 'The LORD hath been sore displeased with your fathers.' The emphatic 'sore displeased' (Hebrew: qatsaph qatsaph, intense anger) recalls the exile's cause—covenant unfaithfulness. This isn't beginning with encouragement but with sobering historical reality. God's anger at sin is real and consequential. The reference to 'fathers' creates continuity—the exile generation's sin led to Babylon, warning the restoration generation against repeating failures. Divine displeasure with sin isn't cultural but eternal; God's character demands holiness.
