For what are Uriyah and Zecharyah witnesses?
Rashi 1 : Uriyah prophesized in the days of Yehoyakim about the evil that will come on them - "Uriyah
Radak: This is like Targum Yonasan, that Hashem makes them witnesses.
Uriyah was in Bayis Rishon, and Zecharyah was in Bayis Sheni. Why does the verse put them together?
Rashi, based on Makos 24b: Uriyah is a Siman for and Zecharyah. When you see Uriyah's prophecy 1 fulfilled, anticipate the fulfillment of Zecharyah's 2 (refer to 8:2:1:1). Similarly, Amos and Yeshayah prophesized about Sancheriv - Amos for the punishment of the 10 tribes "Galo Yigleh Yisrael" (7:11), and Yeshayah for the promise to [save] Chizkiyah, when he will reign (Perek 32).
Makos 24b: I.e. "Tziyon Sadeh Secharesh" (Michah 3:12). Tosfos (ibid.) - we do not find that Uriyah said so! However, he prophesized "k'Chol Divrei Yirmeyah" (Yirmeyah 26:20).
24b: This is why R. Akiva laughed when he saw a fox emerge from the Kodesh ha'Kodoshim.
