Chapter 1-2
In chapter 2, what did the man in Zechariah's vision have in his hand?
a measuring line
Zechariah 2:1 "I lifted up mine eyes again, and looked, and behold a man with a measuring line in his hand."
Most Bible scholars believe that this refers to the New Jerusalem.
According to Zechariah 3, who was standing at the right hand of Joshua, the High Priest, to resist him?
Satan
It might be of interest to note that Joshua could be considered a "type" of representation of Christ in this passage, perhaps showing us a then-future event in which he had been taken off the cross and resurrected with the filth of the sins of the world all over him.
This at least, could be a fairly accepted interpretation of this passage of scripture.
In the 8th verse, the angel of the Lord includes this statement to Joshua: "...then thou shalt also judge my house..." seemingly as an indicator of a time yet-to-come. (KJV)
How long was the flying roll in Zechariah 5:2?
20 cubits
Zechariah 5:2 (KJV): "And he said unto me, What seest thou? And I answered, I see a flying roll; the length thereof is twenty cubits, and the breadth thereof ten cubits."
A cubit was measured from the elbow to the tip of a man's middle finger. On average it is about 20 inches long.
Most modern versions translate scroll instead of roll - both in reference to a document bearing a curse.
What does chapter 12 say the Lord will do to all nations that come against Jerusalem?
destroy them
Zechariah 12:9 says, "And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem."
In the Jewish and Christian religions, the Israelites are known as God's chosen people, so it would make sense that He would not let anyone harm Jerusalem.
Zechariah 14 tells of a time when Jerusalem's former enemies will come to worship every year during the Feast of Tabernacles, or else face the threat of God withholding rain. In that time, what will be inscribed on the bells of the horses?
Holiness to the Lord
The New King James Study Bible explains that repentant nations that attacked Jerusalem will take part in celebrating the Feast of Tabernacles, a yearly Israelite festival recalling the 40-year journey in the wilderness.

In verse 7:11, what did they refuse to do?
to hearken/listen
Zechariah 7:11 says, "But they refused to hearken, and pulled away the shoulder, and stopped their ears, that they should not hear."
Hearken is another word for listen.
Where does the LORD say the cornerstone will come from in Zechariah 10:4
Judah
In Revelation 5:5 (NIV) Jesus is called the Lion of the Tribe of Judah. In Acts 4:11 it says, "Jesus is "the stone you builders rejected, which has become the cornerstone." Therefore, based on these verses, many Christians believe that Zechariah 10:4 is a Messianic prophesy found in the Old Testament.

During the restorative process mentioned in chapter 8 of Zechariah, where does he say that God's word reveals that "... many people and strong nations shall come to seek the Lord of hosts"?
Jerusalem
In verses 20 through 23 of the eighth chapter, we see quite a graphic description of this upcoming event.
"Thus saith the LORD of hosts; It shall yet come to pass, that there shall come people, and the inhabitants of many cities: And the inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying, Let us go speedily to pray before the LORD, and to seek the LORD of hosts: I will go also. Yea, many people and strong nations shall come to seek the LORD of hosts in Jerusalem, and to pray before the LORD.

According to Zechariah 7:11, God's chosen people refused to hear His commands. In verse 13, He says that because they would not hear Him, he in turn, would not hear their cries.

Some Christians believe that this scripture is referring to Jesus.
The word "both" in this instance could be construed as being representative of God the father and God the son.
What happens to the silver coins in Zechariah 11:13?
The Lord told Zechariah to throw them to the potter.
Note: This is Judas Iscariot who was paid 30 pieces of silver to betray Jesus. He bought a potter's field and hung himself there. Notice that Jesus is in control of this whole event. He still is!
