Zechariah 6:3
Context6:3 to the third white horses, and to the fourth spotted horses, all of them strong. 1
Zechariah 8:19
Context8:19 “The Lord who rules over all says, ‘The fast of the fourth, fifth, seventh, and tenth 2 months will become joyful and happy, pleasant feasts for the house of Judah, so love truth and peace.’
[6:3] 1 tc For the MT reading אֲמֻצִּים (’amutsim, “strong”) Aquila and Syriac presuppose אֲדֻמִּים (’adummim, “red”), thus giving the red horse an assignment and eliminating the problem of a fifth, “spotted” horse. The fourth would be a mottled red horse according to this view. There is, however, no manuscript support for this interpretation.
[8:19] 2 sn The fasts of the fifth and seventh months, mentioned previously (7:5), are listed here along with the observances of the fourth and tenth months. The latter commemorated the siege of Jerusalem by the Babylonians on January 15, 588
