Haggai 2:12
12/22/2024
If a person carries consecated meat in the fold of his garment, and that fold touches some bread or stew, some wine, oil or other food, does it become consecrated? The priests answered, "No."
Those who returned from Babylon to rebuild the Temple were discouraged and downcast. Haggai’s goal is to lift them up and help them put their heart into the work at hand. He does not simply rebuke their lack of enthusiasm. He brings them to see how they never can become what they ought to be, and that they must look to the Lord in faith. God is aware of the contrast between the glory of the old Temple and their poor efforts on the new. But this temple will be visited by the Lord Himself. God’s personal presence makes anything glorious. Our lives can be made important and significant by the presence of Jesus.
