Zechariah 1:2 - Exposition

Hath been sore displeased ; literally, displeased with displeasure, which the versions render, ὠργίσθη ὀργὴν μεγάλην : iratus iracundia (cf. Zechariah 1:15 ). Not only events connected with their earlier history proved that God had been incensed with their forefathers, but the ruin of their kingdom, and the late Captivity, and the desolation around them, were evidence of the same sad truth.
