Haggai Overview
Bible Book OverviewsSteve Gregg
In this overview, Steve Gregg discusses the book of Haggai, a post-exilic prophetic work consisting of two chapters, which emphasizes God's displeasure with neglecting the rebuilding of His temple and prioritizing personal needs. Haggai encourages the people to carefully consider the foundation of the Lord's temple, and blessings will come from that day forward. The book contains four messages, including God's promise of preservation to Zerubbabel amidst future upheavals and geopolitical changes. Despite their initial disobedience, the people respond to Haggai's message and begin rebuilding the temple, which will be filled with glory and where Jesus will preach.
