The clojure-1.8.0.zip file should also contain a pre-built JAR file named
clojure-1.8.0.jar, if you want to just use that and run with it.
I do not know if it is intentional or a mistake that some of the files
necessary to build are not included in that zip file. It may be
intentional, with the idea that the zip file is what you get if you want
everything already built, without having to do so yourself.
If you want to build Clojure yourself from source, one way that works is to
get all of the files in the git repository, e.g. with this command:
git clone https://github.com/clojure/clojure.git
