The Book Of Haggai -- A Brief Overview
Consists of two brief, comprehensive chapters. The object of the
prophet was generally to urge the people to proceed with the rebuilding
of the temple. Chapter first comprehends the first address (2-11) and
its effects (12-15). Chapter second contains,
(1.) The second prophecy (1-9), which was delivered a month after the
first.
(2.) The third prophecy (10-19), delivered two months and three days
after the second; and
(3.) The fourth prophecy (20-23), delivered on the same day as the
third. These discourses are referred to in Ezra 5:1; 6:14; Heb. 12:26.
(Comp. Hag. 2:7, 8, 22.)
