Zerubbabel the Son of Shealtiel, Governor of Judah, and to Joshua the Son of Jehozadak, the High Priest, Saying, “Thus Says the Lord of Hosts”… Haggai 1:1-2A Now faith (πίστις pistis) is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1 And without faith it is impossible to please God Hebrews 11:6 Life of Haggai Book of Haggai Who was Haggai? Name means “festive,” one of the twelve so-called minor prophets. He was the first of the three (Zechariah, his contemporary, and Malachi, who was about one hundred years later, being the other two) whose ministry belonged to the period of Jewish history which began after the return from captivity in Babylon. Scarcely anything is known of his personal history. He may have been one of the captives taken to Babylon by Nebuchadnezzar. He began his ministry about sixteen years after the Return. The work of rebuilding the temple had been put a stop to through the intrigues of the Samaritans. After having been suspended for fifteen years, the work was resumed through the efforts of Haggai and Zechariah (Ezra 6:14), who by their exhortations roused the people from their lethargy, and induced them to take advantage of the favorable opportunity that had arisen in a change in the policy of the Persian government. Haggai’s prophecies have thus been characterized:, “There is a ponderous and simple dignity in the emphatic reiteration addressed alike to every class of the community, prince, priest, and people, ‘Be strong, be strong, be strong’ (2:4). ‘Cleave, stick fast, to the work you have to do;’ or again, ‘Consider your ways, consider, consider, consider’ (1:5, 7; 2:15, 18). - Easton’s Bible Dictionary Timeline • 722 BC Israel (northern kingdom) taken captive by Assyrians • 596 BC Judah (southern kingdom) taken captive by Babylonians and Nebuchadnezzar • 539 BC King Cyrus of Persia allows exiled Jews to return to Promised Land • 539 BC Foundation of new temple laid • 520 BC Haggai called by God to lead the people of Judah in repentance and worship https://www.slideshare.net/jackfoo/06-09-haggai-1-gods-work-must-have-priority-final?next_slideshow=1 In the second year of Darius the king (of Persia), on the first day of the sixth month (1 Elul [August 29] 520 BC), the word of the Lord came by the prophet Haggai to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, saying, “Thus says the Lord of hosts”… Haggai 1:1-2a *Shealtiel was son of King Jehoiachin, grandson of King Josiah, descendant of King David *God often uses prophets to speak to leaders first, then the rest of the people “Thus says the Lord of hosts, ‘This people says… Haggai 1:2a •“The Lord of hosts” is Yahweh Sabaoth יְהוִה צְבָא ֖ ֹות •This name is used for God 14 times in Book of Haggai •This people vs. My people a 2010 teaching series a TITLESMy AND people HEADINGS •Phrase “my people” appears 232 times in the Bible •224 times in the Old Testament •8 times in the New Testament •A person speaks the phrase 121 times •FirstTITLES instance in AND Genesis HEADINGS 23:11, spoken to Abraham by Ephron the Hittite •God speaks the phrase 111 times •First instance in Exodus 3:7 “Thus says the Lord of hosts, ‘This people says, “The time has not come, even the time for the house of the Lord to be rebuilt.” ’ ” Then the word of the Lord came by Haggai the prophet, saying, “Is it time for you yourselves to dwell in your paneled houses while this house lies desolate?” Haggai 1:2-4 What are MY PRIORITIES? • My comfort vs. God’s calling • My desires vs. the needs of others • Self-centered vs. Gospel-centered Now therefore, thus says the Lord of hosts, “Consider your ways! You have sown much, but harvest little; you eat, but there is not enough to be satisfied; you drink, but there is not enough to become drunk; you put on clothing, but no one is warm enough; and he who earns, earns wages to put into a purse with holes.” Haggai 1:5-6 • Consider your ways = Give careful thought to your ways = Literally “Set your hearts on your ways” • How much time do I spend in spiritual reflection? • A sovereign God uses our earthly circumstances to teach us spiritual lessons… “divine chastening” • “If also after these things you do not obey Me, then I will punish you seven times more for your sins. I will also break down your pride of power; I will also make your sky like iron and your earth like bronze. Your strength will be spent uselessly, for your land will not yield its produce and the trees of the land will not yield their fruit.” Leviticus 26:18-20 Thus says the Lord of hosts, “Consider your ways! Go up to the mountains, bring wood and rebuild the temple, that I may be pleased with it and be glorified,” says the Lord. “You look for much, but behold, it comes to little; when you bring it home, I blow it away. Why?” declares the Lord of hosts, “Because of My house which lies desolate, while each of you runs to his own house. Therefore, because of you the sky has withheld its dew and the earth has withheld its produce. I called for a drought on the land, on the mountains, on the grain, on the new wine, on the oil, on what the ground produces, on men, on cattle, and on all the labor of your hands.” Haggai 1:7-11 *We don’t need a bigger harvest, we need a deeper relationship with God *Is it my life’s priority to please and glorify God? Then Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, with all the remnant of the people, obeyed the voice of the Lord their God and the words of Haggai the prophet, as the Lord their God had sent him. And the people showed reverence for the Lord. Then Haggai, the messenger of the Lord, spoke by the commission of the Lord to the people saying, “ ‘I am with you,’ declares the Lord.” So the Lord stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people; and they came and worked on the house of the Lord of hosts, their God, on the twenty-fourth day of the sixth month (23 days after 1:1) in the second year of Darius the king. Haggai 1:12-15 *Change in heart always precedes change in action On the twenty-first of the seventh month (21 Tishri [17 October] 520 BC), the word of the Lord came by Haggai the prophet saying, Haggai 2:1 In this period the progress in rebuilding was slow, no doubt because of the laborious task of cleaning up 60 years of rubble and the cessation of work during the numerous festivals of the seventh month—the weekly Sabbaths, the Feast of Trumpets (Rosh Hashanah) on the first day, the Day of Atonement on the 10th, and the Feast of Booths (or Tabernacles) from Tishri 15 to 21, with Tishri 22 also being a rest day (Leviticus 23). -Bible Knowledge Commentary http://www.hebrew4christians.com/Holidays/Summer_Holidays/Tishah_B_Av/tishah_b_av.html On the twenty-first of the seventh month (21 Tishri [17 October] 520 BC), the word of the Lord came by Haggai the prophet saying, “Speak now to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to the remnant of the people saying, ‘Who is left among you who saw this temple in its former glory? And how do you see it now? Does it not seem to you like nothing in comparison?’” Haggai 2:1-3 *Are you discouraged? “ ‘But now take courage, Zerubbabel,’ declares the Lord, ‘take courage also, Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and all you people of the land take courage,’ declares the Lord, ‘and work; for I am with you,’ declares the Lord of hosts.” Haggai 2:4 “Do not fear, for I am with you; do not anxiously look about you, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, surely I will help you, surely I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.” Isaiah 41:10 *God empowers His people for kingdom work ‘As for the promise which I made you when you came out of Egypt, My Spirit is abiding in your midst; do not fear!’ “For thus says the Lord of hosts, ‘Once more in a little while, I am going to shake the heavens and the earth, the sea also and the dry land. I will shake all the nations; and they will come with the wealth of all nations, and I will fill this house with glory,’ says the Lord of hosts. The silver is Mine and the gold is Mine,’ declares the Lord of hosts. The latter glory of this house will be greater than the former,’ says the Lord of hosts, ‘and in this place I will give peace,’ declares the Lord of hosts.” Haggai 2:5-9 On the twenty-fourth of the ninth month (24 Kislev [December 18] 520 BC), in the second year of Darius, the word of the Lord came to Haggai the prophet, saying, “Thus says the Lord of hosts, ‘Ask now the priests for a ruling: If a man carries holy meat in the fold of his garment, and touches bread with this fold, or cooked food, wine, oil, or any other food, will it become holy?’ ” And the priests answered, “No.” Then Haggai said, “If one who is unclean from a corpse touches any of these, will the latter become unclean?” And the priests answered, “It will become unclean.” Then Haggai said, “ ‘So is this people.

Along with Suriel (Suriyel), he conducted Adam and Eve from the top of a high mountain, where Satan had lured them, to the cave of treasures. http://evp.paranomalo.us/2011/10/13/angels-their-names-and-meaning-s-z/ Encyclopedia of Angels By Richard Webster Shealtiel 1 Shealtiel ,שְׁאַלְתִּיאֵל :Shealtiel (Hebrew Shə’altî’ēl) or Greek-derived variant Salathiel (Greek: Σαλαθιηλ, Salăthiēl) was the son of Jeconiah, king of Judah. (1 Chronicles 3:17-18 [1]) The Gospels Matthew 1:12 [2] also list Shealtiel as the son of Jeconiah, while Luke 3:27-28 [3] lists him as the son of an otherwise unknown man named Neri. Jeconiah, Shealtiel as well as the most of the royal house and elite of Judah were exiled to Babylon by order of Lunette in the Sistine Chapel of Shealtiel with Josiah and Jeconiah. Nebuchadnezzar II of Babylon after the first siege of Jerusalem in 597 BC. During the Babylonian captivity, Shealtiel was regarded as the second Exilarch (or king-in-exile), following his father.[4] In Hebrew, the name Shealtiel means, Shə’altî ’Ēl, "I asked El (for this child)". The name acknowledges that the son is an answer to the parents' prayer to God (El) to help them conceive and birth a child. Many Hebrew names similarly express the importance of, difficulty of, and thankfulness for a successful pregnancy. Shealtiel is a significant but problematic member in the genealogies of the House of David and of the genealogy of Jesus.

  • "Family Line" Matthew 1:1-17
    "Family Line" Matthew 1:1-17 Overview Have you ever researched your family tree? An entire industry has been formed around the idea of people learning more about their family roots. It includes TV shows, DNA kits, internet research, and more. Understanding where we have come from often grants us perspective into who we are. Tracing our family history can grant us a sense of being grounded in our identity (and maybe even give us a perspective on where we are headed). We all have come from somewhere and someone – but what about Jesus? While it is true that He is God incarnate, He is also the descendent of a human lineage – and knowing about that can help us better understand who He is. Getting Started All In the Family 1. Share an interesting fact from your family history. 2. What is your ethnic heritage? How important was that heritage in your family as you were growing up? How about now? 3. If you could graft anyone into your immediate family, who would it be? The Text This is the genealogy of Jesus the Messiah the son of David, the son of Abraham: 2 Abraham was the father of Isaac, Isaac the father of Jacob, Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers, 3 Judah the father of Perez and Zerah, whose mother was Tamar, Perez the father of Hezron, Hezron the father of Ram, 4 Ram the father of Amminadab, Amminadab the father of Nahshon, Nahshon the father of Salmon, 5 Salmon the father of Boaz, whose mother was Rahab, Boaz the father of Obed, whose mother was Ruth, Obed the father of Jesse, 6 and Jesse the father of King David.

  • The Authority of Scripture: the Puzzle of the Genealogies of Jesus Mako A
    The Authority of Scripture: The Puzzle of the Genealogies of Jesus Mako A. Nagasawa, June 2005 Four Main Differences in the Genealogies Provided by Matthew and Luke 1. Is Jesus descended through the line of Solomon (Mt) or the line of Nathan (Lk)? Or both? 2. Are there 27 people from David to Jesus (Mt) or 42 (Lk)? 3. Who was Joseph’s father? Jacob (Mt) or Heli (Lk)? 4. What is the lineage of Shealtiel and Zerubbabel? a. Are they the same father-son pair in Mt as in Lk? (Apparently popular father-son names were repeated across families – as with Jacob and Joseph in Matthew’s genealogy) If not, then no problem. I will, for purposes of this discussion, assume that they are not the same father-son pair. b. If so, then there is another problem: i. Who was Shealtiel’s father? Jeconiah (Mt) or Neri (Lk)? ii. Who was Zerubbabel’s son? Abihud (Mt) or Rhesa (Lk)? And where are these two in the list of 1 Chronicles 3:19-20 ( 19b the sons of Zerubbabel were Meshullam and Hananiah, and Shelomith was their sister; 20 and Hashubah, Ohel, Berechiah, Hasadiah and Jushab-hesed, five)? Cultural Factors 1. Simple remarriage. It is likely that in most marriages, men were older and women were younger (e.g. Joseph and Mary). So it is also likely that when husbands died, many women remarried. This was true in ancient times: Boaz married the widow Ruth, David married the widow Bathsheba after Uriah was killed. It also seems likely to have been true in classical, 1 st century times: Paul (in Rom.7:1-3) suggests that this is at least somewhat common in the Jewish community (‘I speak to those under the Law’ he says) in the 1 st century.

  • Christmas 2020 Part 1 Notes
    Sierra Community Church November 29th Part 1- Dan Wilvers III. The genealogy tells us good will triumph over evil. The triumph of good over evil only happens because God broke Matthew 1:1-17 through the barrier of sinful humankind and became one of us. In How Christ’s genealogy tells us of doing so He not only demonstrated His great love for us by dying God’s good intentions! in our place for God’s righteous judgment of our sins, He also established a kingdom without end that is ours to enter into by 1 This is the genealogy of Jesus the Messiah the son of David, the son of faith in Christ’s work, of suffering on our behalf ,in order to make 2 us righteous too. Who wouldn’t want this? Abraham: Abraham was the father of Isaac, Isaac the father of Jacob, Jacob 3 the father of Judah and his brothers, Judah the father of Perez and Zerah, whose mother was Tamar, Perez the father of Hezron, Hezron the father of Ram, This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is 4 Ram the father of Amminadab, Amminadab the father of Nahshon, Nahshon no difference between Jew and Gentile, 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the 5 glory of God, 24 and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that the father of Salmon, Salmon the father of Boaz, whose mother was Rahab, came by Christ Jesus.25 God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement, through Boaz the father of Obed, whose mother was Ruth, Obed the father of Jesse, 6 the shedding of his blood—to be received by faith.

  • Difficulties of New Testament Genealogies
    DIFFICULTIES OF NEW TESTAMENT GENEALOGIES R. LARRY OVERSTREET The genealogies in Matthew and Luke are integral parts of those Gospels. They are remarkably precise documents, each accomplishing the aim of testifying to God's design in the birth of Jesus Christ. This article presents the purposes and peculiarities of each genealogy, and also examines the difficulties of interpretation attendant to them. Special attention is focused on the difficulties found when Matthew is compared to the OT. and on the difficulties found when Matthew is compared to Luke. Both genealogies are reckoned as accurate in even the smallest details. * * * HE NT opens with an arresting prefatory record of names. T Many readers probably pass over them as being of no practical value. However, this genealogy which opens the NT is, in many respects, one of the most important documents in the Scriptures. Much of the Bible stands or falls with its accuracy. If the Word of God contains mistakes in this section, how is any of it to be trusted, for this is the connecting link between the OT and NT? Evidently, genealogies were available to the ancient public, and it could be established easily if a person had a legitimate claim to any particular line. For example, Ezra 2:62 states, "These sought their register among those that were reckoned by genealogy, but they were not found: therefore were they, as polluted, put from the priesthood." This demonstrates how it was then possible to check the register of the tribe of Levi and remove those that made a false claim.

  • What a King Should Be: Reading 1 and 2 Kings
    WHAT A KING SHOULD BE: READING 1 AND 2 KINGS BRUCE CHICK Every book of the Bible reveals something unique about the glory of Christ . After his resurrection, Jesus explained to his disciples on the road to Emmaus how all of Scripture concerns himself . The hearts of his disciples burned within them as the Lord opened the Scriptures (Luke 24:32), and our hearts should experience the same as the Spirit of the living God enables us to be- hold the glory of the Lord in every page of Israel’s history . In 1 and 2 Kings, we learn that none of Israel’s kings ultimately fulfilled God’s plan for a just and merciful leader . It was as if the regal robes sagged over every king’s slender shoulders with whopping necklines and drooping wrinkles, like a preschooler wearing his father’s oversized t-shirt . No matter how hard commendable kings like Hezekiah, Jehoshaphat, and Josiah tried, even they fell woefully short of the ideal due to their sinful hearts . Yet even in these historical accounts, the word of God fills us with hope and leads to the burning heart of seeing Christ . “For whatever was written in former days was written for our instruction, that through endurance and through the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope” (Rom . 15:4) . 1 and 2 Kings reveal God’s merciful character and prepare the way for a true and better king . 41 Yearning for the Ideal King Israel was a privileged nation that experienced many blessings from God, but it longed for something better .

  • I. the King Is Revealed (1-3)
    Matthew 1 In Galatians 4:4 Paul writes “But when the fullness of the time came, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the Law,” This was written before Matthewʼs gospel and it is possible that Matthewʼs first chapters represent an exposition of Paulʼs brief account of Jesus origin. I. The King is revealed (1-3) How was Jesusʼ nature unique? Matthewʼs contribution to the story begins with the birth of Jesus, which is described as the supernatural visitation of God to this earth in the person of Immanuel. He wants us to see how the advent of Christ was a part of Godʼs plan for history and that it was predicted long ago. He also wants us to see that Jesus is both the son of David and the Son of God. What does the genealogy of Jesus teach us about His significance? A. His ancestry “the fullness of the time” (1:1-17) 1 The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham. 2 To Abraham was born Isaac; and to Isaac, Jacob; and to Jacob, Judah and his brothers; 3 and to Judah were born Perez and Zerah by Tamar; and to Perez was born Hezron; and to Hezron, Ram; 4 and to Ram was born Amminadab; and to Amminadab, Nahshon; and to Nahshon, Salmon; 5 and to Salmon was born Boaz by Rahab; and to Boaz was born Obed by Ruth; and to Obed, Jesse; 6 and to Jesse was born David the king. And to David was born Solomon by her {who had been the wife} of Uriah; 7 and to Solomon was born Rehoboam; and to Rehoboam, Abijah; and to Abijah, Asa; 8 and to Asa was born Jehoshaphat; and to Jehoshaphat, Joram; and to Joram, Uzziah; 9 and to Uzziah was born Jotham; and to Jotham, Ahaz; and to Ahaz, Hezekiah; 10 and to Hezekiah was born Manasseh; and to Manasseh, Amon; and to Amon, Josiah; 11 and to Josiah were born Jeconiah and his brothers, at the time of the deportation to Babylon.
