These discourses are referred to in Ezra 5:1 and 6:14. (Compare Haggai 2:7, 8 and 22) Text from Haggai 2:9 on a synagogue in Alkmaar: "The glory of this present house will be greater than the glory of the former house."

Russian icon of Haggai, 18th century (Iconostasis of Kizhi monastery, Karelia, Russia). Haggai or Aggeus [1] (/ ˈ h æ ɡ aɪ /; Hebrew: חַגַּי – Ḥaggay; Koine Greek: Ἀγγαῖος; Latin: Aggaeus) was a Hebrew prophet active during the building of the Second Temple in Jerusalem, one of the twelve minor prophets in the Hebrew Bible, and the author or subject of the Book of Haggai.
One of the three prophets from the post-exilic period, Zechariah's prophecies took place during the reign of Darius the Great. [1]Chapters 1–8 of the book are contemporary with the prophecies of Haggai, [2] while chapters 9–14 (often termed Second Zechariah) are thought to have been written much later—in the 5th century, during the late Persian or early Ptolemaic period.

[6] [20] Accordingly, Zechariah was a contemporary of the prophet Haggai, [21] confirming the records in Ezra 5:1 and Ezra 6:14.

The Hebrew scriptures were an important source for the New Testament authors. [13] There are 27 direct quotations in the Gospel of Mark, 54 in Matthew, 24 in Luke, and 14 in John, and the influence of the scriptures is vastly increased when allusions and echoes are included, [14] with half of Mark's gospel being made up of allusions to and citations of the scriptures.

Almost 2 million men and women who served in Iraq or Afghanistan are flooding homeward, profoundly affected by war. Their experiences have been vivid. Dazzling in the ups, terrifying and depressing in the downs. The burning devotion of the small-unit brotherhood, the adrenaline rush of danger, the nagging fear and loneliness, the pride of service.
The vision points to the unlimited size of the restored city (cf. Isaiah 49:19–21), assuring the people that God's glory will be in there (cf. Ezekiel 43:1–5; Haggai 2:9). Jerusalem will become "a city without walls". [18] Katrina Larkin notes that "the formerly negative image of a city without walls becomes a positive one". [19]
