ハガイ書 2:5-7 JC

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Haggai 2:5

"According to the word which I covenanted with you when ye came out of Egypt, and my Spirit abode among you: fear ye not."The ancient covenant that God made with Abraham, promising to bless "all the people of the earth" through his "seed" (singular, which is Christ), will yet be honored by the Father. True, there had been a gross misunderstanding on secular Israel's part about what God's blessing meant, most of them interpreting it to mean that God would help them subdue all earthly enemies and... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Haggai 2:6

"For thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Yet once, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land; and I will shake all nations; and the precious things of all nations shall come; and I will fill this house with glory, saith Jehovah of hosts.""I will shake the heavens ... earth ... sea ... and dry land ..." We hold these words to be unequivocally a reference to the final Judgment that shall close the age of probation for the human race. Some have... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Haggai 2:5

Haggai 2:5. According to the word that I covenanted— Houbigant begins this verse with the last clause of the fourth, For I, saith the Lord of Hosts, will bring to you that which I covenanted with you, when ye came out of Egypt; and my Spirit shall remain with you: fear ye not. What was that covenant? says Bishop Warburton;—that Israel should be his people, and he be their God and king. Therefore, it cannot mean barely that he would be their God, and they should be his people; for this was but... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Haggai 2:6-9

Haggai 2:6-9. For thus saith the Lord— The excellent Bishop Chandler has, with his usual learning and judgment, explained this remarkable prophesy; and it is from him that we have chiefly extracted what follows. The occasion of this prophesy, says he, was the dejection of the Jews at the unhopeful appearance of their new-erecting temple, Haggai 2:3. The comfort, therefore, in the prophet's message was surely suited to this circumstance, and contains a promise of some glory to be conferred on... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Haggai 2:5

5. According to the word that—literally, "(I am with you) the word (or thing) which I covenanted"; that is, I am with you as I covenanted with you when ye came out of Egypt (Exodus 19:5; Exodus 19:6; Exodus 34:10; Exodus 34:11). The covenant promise of God to the elect people at Sinai is an additional motive for their persevering. The Hebrew for to "covenant" is literally "to cut," alluding to the sacrificial victims cut in ratification of a covenant. so—or, "and." my Spirit remaineth among... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Haggai 2:6

6. Yet once, it is a little while—or, "(it is) yet a little while." The Hebrew for "once" expresses the indefinite article "a" [MAURER]. Or, "it is yet only a little while"; literally, "one little," that is, a single brief space till a series of movements is to begin; namely, the shakings of nations soon to begin which are to end in the advent of Messiah, "the desire of all nations" [MOORE]. The shaking of nations implies judgments of wrath on the foes of God's people, to precede the reign of... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Haggai 2:7

7. shake—not convert; but cause that agitation which is to precede Messiah's coming as the healer of the nations' agitations. The previous shaking shall cause the yearning "desire" for the Prince of peace. MOORE and others translate "the beauty," or "the desirable things (the precious gifts) of all nations shall come" (Isaiah 60:5; Isaiah 60:11; Isaiah 61:6). He brings these objections to applying "the desire of all nations" to Messiah: (1) The Hebrew means the quality, not the thing desired,... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Haggai 2:5

The Lord reiterated the promise He had made to the Israelites when they left Egypt in the Exodus. His Spirit would stay in their midst, so they did not need to fear (cf. Exodus 19:4-6; Exodus 33:14). The returnees could identify with their forefathers who departed from Egypt because they had recently departed from another captivity in Babylon. As the Lord had been with them in the cloudy pillar, so He was with them now. As David had encouraged Solomon to build the first temple with the promise... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Haggai 2:6

The basis of their confidence and lack of fear was a promise from Almighty Yahweh. He would do again in the future what He had done at the Exodus and at Mt. Sinai (Exodus 19:16; Exodus 19:18; Psalms 68:8; Psalms 77:16-18). Shaking the heavens and the earth describes an earthquake, which was an evidence of the Lord’s supernatural intervention (cf. Isaiah 2:12-21; Isaiah 13:13; Ezekiel 38:20; Amos 8:8). This will occur when Christ returns to the earth (Joel 3:16; Matthew 24:29-30).The writer of... read more
