In Hungarian Sign Language it is translated with a sign that is based on calling attention to God’s will and encouraging the building of the temple (see Zechariah 4:99. This sign clearly distinguishes the prophet from the previously mentioned New Testament Zechariah (the father of John the Baptist). While the latter’s sign refers to muteness, the prophet’s sign captures his active theological and historical role — the rebuilding of the Temple in Jerusalem and spiritual awakening. This distinction highlights the precision of biblical sign language: they do not merely denote names, but encode the person’s significance in salvation history within the signs themselves, thereby aiding believers in identification and scriptural interpretation.
