1:3 So the
Lord spoke through the prophet Haggai as follows:
Haggai 1:13
1:13 Then Haggai, the
Lord’s messenger, spoke the
Lord’s word to the people:
“I am with you!” says the
Lord.
Haggai 2:13-14
2:13 Then Haggai asked, “If a person who is ritually unclean because of touching a dead body
comes in contact with one of these items, will it become unclean?” The priests answered, “It will be unclean.”
2:14 Then Haggai responded, “‘The people of this nation are unclean in my sight,’ says the Lord. ‘And so is all their effort; everything they offer is also unclean.
Haggai 1:12
The Response of the People
1:12 Then Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel and the high priest Joshua son of Jehozadak, along with the whole remnant of the people, obeyed the Lord their God. They responded favorably to the message of the prophet Haggai, who spoke just as the Lord their God had instructed him, and the people began to respect the Lord.
Haggai 2:20
Zerubbabel the Chosen One
2:20 Then the Lord spoke again to Haggai on the twenty-fourth day of the month:
Haggai 1:5
1:5 Here then is what the
Lord who rules over all says: ‘Think carefully about what you are doing.
Haggai 1:8
1:8 Go up to the hill country and bring back timber to build
the temple.
Then I will be pleased and honored,’
says the
Lord.
Haggai 2:1
The Glory to Come
2:1 On the twenty-first day of the seventh month, the Lord spoke again through the prophet Haggai:
Haggai 2:7
2:7 I will also shake up all the nations, and they
will offer their treasures;
then I will fill this temple with glory,’ says the
Lord who rules over all.
Haggai 2:15
2:15 Now therefore reflect carefully on the recent past,
before one stone was laid on another in the
Lord’s temple.
Haggai 2:12
2:12 If someone carries holy meat in a fold of his garment and that fold touches bread, a boiled dish, wine, olive oil, or any other food, will that item become holy?’”
The priests answered, “It will not.”
