Zechariah 14-Internal Parallels Chart
One of the most difficult passages in the Bible is Zechariah 14. Dispensationalism has interpreted this passage as an end times event, which involves Jesus coming back and splitting the Mount of Olives. It is debated between scholars at which point in the End Times Timeline this occurs. Personally, I believe this passage has been partially fulfilled already. The chart below will compare Zechariah 14 to other verses in the book. This will reveal a historical fulfillment as well as a future fulfillment.

From the verses above, we can see that Christ’s first coming fulfilled Zechariah 14. Christ’s Kingdom was inaugurated and his Elect/Spiritual Israel were sent out on the Great Commission as Spiritual Ambassadors. In addition, we see the events of the 70AD judgment on Ethnic Israel and the figurative description of new covenant worship.
