Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Haggai 2:6-9

"For thus saith the LORD 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; (7) And I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the LORD of hosts. (8) The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith the LORD of hosts. (9) The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former, saith the LORD of hosts: and in this place will I give peace, saith the... read more

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Haggai 2:1-9

1-9 Those who are hearty in the Lord's service shall receive encouragement to proceed. But they could not build such a temple then, as Solomon built. Though our gracious God is pleased if we do as well as we can in his service, yet our proud hearts will scarcely let us be pleased, unless we do as well as others, whose abilities are far beyond ours. Encouragement is given the Jews to go on in the work notwithstanding. They have God with them, his Spirit and his special presence. Though he... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Haggai 2:1-99

Hag 2 ABOUT FOUR WEEKS later there came another message from the Lord through the prophet Haggai, and this time it was a word of encouragement. It was specially addressed to the very old people, who might have some recollection of the magnificence of Solomon's temple, and consequently realize how inferior was any temple that they could hope to raise. The encouragement ministered was twofold. It had first a present aspect and then a future one. But first let us note how this record bears upon... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Haggai 2:1-9

A Comforting Assurance v. 1. In the seventh month, in the one and twentieth day of the month, not even a full month after the construction of the Temple had been resumed, came the word of the Lord by the prophet Haggai, saying, v. 2. Speak now to Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua, the son of Josedech, the high priest, and to the residue of the people, the rest of those who had now re-turned from Babylon, saying, v. 3. Who is left among you that saw this... read more

THIRD ADDRESSThe Glory of the Second TempleHaggai 2:1-91In the seventh (month), and the twenty-first (day) of the month there was a 2word of Jehovah by the hand of Haggai the Prophet, saying: Speak, now, to Zerubbabel, son of Shaltiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua, son of Jozadak, the 3high priest, and to the rest of the people, saying: Who among you is left1 that has seen this house in its former glory? And what are seeing it (to be) now? Is not such2 (a one) as it like nothing in your... read more

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Haggai 2:1-9

Haggai BRAVE ENCOURAGEMENTS Hag_2:1 - Hag_2:9 . The second year of Darius, in which Haggai prophesied, was 520 B.C. Political intrigues had stopped the rebuilding of the Temple, and the enthusiasm of the first return had died away in the face of prolonged difficulties. The two brave leaders, Zerubbabel and Joshua, still survived, and kept alive their own zeal; but the mass of the people were more concerned about their comforts than about the restoration of the house of Jehovah. They had... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Haggai 2:1-9

the True Glory of God’s House Haggai 1:12-15 ; Haggai 2:1-9 One earnest man can arouse an entire community. Let a fire glow in our hearts, and it will spread. Assured of God’s presence and favor, within three weeks the whole land was awake. Note the cooperation of God’s Spirit with the message of His servant, “the Lord stirred up.” Let us ever seek and rely on His cooperation! “We are witnesses, so also is the Holy Spirit!” Three prophecies occupy the following chapter. In the first, Haggai... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Haggai 2:1-23

About seven weeks later Haggai delivered his second message. This was addressed to Zerubbabel the governor, Joshua the priest, and all the people. A comparison of Ezr 3:13 with this message will show how certain of the old men who remembered the former house lamented the comparative inferiority of this. This memory tended to dishearten the people, and the prophet appealed to them to be strong and to work, promising in His name Jehovah's immediate presence and help. On the basis of this... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Haggai 2:1-9

God’s House Will Become A House For All Nations, Filled With Glory (Haggai 2:1-9 ). God’s first promise springing from their obedience is that, in spite of unpromising beginnings, His House will attract all nations, so that His House will be filled with glory. Haggai 2:1 ‘In the seventh month, in the one and twentieth day of the month, came the word of YHWH by Haggai the prophet, saying, This was the last day of the Feast of Tabernacles. The Day of Atonement would have been held on the tenth... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Haggai 2:1-9

Haggai 2:1-1 Samuel : . Haggai’ s Sermon on October 21. Haggai 2:1 f. is mainly editorial. The work begun on Sep. 24 had consisted mainly of preparation, the actual rebuilding is now begun. Haggai 2:3 has reference to the simplicity of the design which was necessitated by the builders’ poverty. Ezra 3:12 f. is probably a picturesque inference from this passage. Ezra 1:6-1 Kings :; Ezra 6:8 ff. are at variance with the natural meaning of Haggai’ s words. Haggai 2:5 a seems to be a mutilated... read more
