Haggai, as we have indicated,
prophesied in Israel in a time of
restoration and rebuilding. Great
projects and many problems un-
questionably confronted the Jews
as they returned from their long
exile in Babylon. Homes had to
be rebuilt; towns and cities had to
be restored. In all this rebuilding
it was easy. to set aside something
that could be done later, and there
were those who said that it, was
not a propitious time for building
the House Of God.
How modern all this seems! How
frequently in various communities
this problem has arisen of whether
churches or schools shall have the
proper place, or even the pre-
eminence! People say, we ought
to have a better church," or I'VE
ought to have a better school build.
