Passage Read: Haggai 1 - Zechariah 2 Meditation Verses: Haggai 1:2-9 Thought The Lord had brought Israel back from captivity, and they had started to rebuild the temple, but then quit. They turned to build their own houses, to expand them. They found their farming to be of limited success, so they spent more time trying to increase their harvest, though nothing worked. They didn't realize the Lord was working against them. They thought their own prosperity was more important than building the Lord's house.
