Zechariah begins his dated prophecy

Zechariah’s ministry is dated two months after Haggai’s first message. The eighth month falls after Tishri, so the Creation year has turned to 3403 while the Nisan year remains 956.

King James Version

Zechariah 1:1–3

In the eighth month, in the second year of Darius, came the word of the LORD unto Zechariah, the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo the prophet, saying, The LORD hath been sore displeased with your fathers. Therefore say thou unto them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Turn ye unto me, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will turn unto you, saith the LORD of hosts.
