Zec 8:4 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; There shall yet old men and old women dwell in the streets of Jerusalem, and every man with his staff in his hand for very age. Ver. 4.

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Zechariah 8:5

Zec 8:5 And the streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls playing in the streets thereof. Ver. 5. And the streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls ] Lads and lasses (as the Hebrew seems to sound), that mind little else but play as if, with leviathan, they had been made to sport, or as those people of Tombutum, in Africa, who are said to spend their whole time in singing and dancing. But this they could not do if the times were troublesome, and the soldier at his bloody... read more

If it be marvellous in the eyes of the remnant of this people ] Here the Lord graciously answereth the secret objection of these Jews’ unbelieving and misgiving hearts.

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Zechariah 8:1-23

RELATIVE IMPORTANCE OF MORAL AND CEREMONIAL REQUIREMENTS, Zechariah 7:1 to Zechariah 8:23. After a silence of nearly two years the voice of Zechariah was heard again.

This question would suggest itself to many as the temple neared completion, and as the seventy years since the destruction of... read more
