The article is a reconstruction of the history of the formation of Zech 9-11. The chapters of Zech 9-11 were divided into pericopes, which were then analyzed using methods of literary and redaction criticism. The analysis showed that the history of the formation of Zech 9-11 is complex and long - probably from Persian times to the period of the Maccabean wars. The original form of Zech 9-11 included verses 9:1-6a; 10:6.8-10, which predicted the restoration of Israel. Subsequently, passages treating on war 10.3b-5.7.11-12 and later created 9.11-13 were introduced into the book. The next redaction combined 10.3b-5.7.11-12 with 10.6.8-10 and created 9.14-17, combining this passage with 9.11-13. At the next stage, during the Hellenistic period, but probably before the Maccabean era, 11:4-5.7.8b-11.14 was written. After 305 BC, Zech 9:9-10 (without 10aα) was written, followed by 11:12-13, then 11:8a and 10:1-2a. Net editorial layer was constituted by the statements about the shepherds 10:2b.3a; 11:1-3.6.15-17; and Zech 9:6b-8 (the phrase וְנִשְׁאַר גַּם-הוּא לֵֽאלֹהֵינוּ is later). In the Maccabean period, Zech 9-11 was supplied with two more glosses, namely עַל-בָּנַיִךְ יָוָן in 9:13 and in 9:10bα.
