Bible: Hag. 1:12, 14

The Response of the People

1:12 Then Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel and the high priest Joshua son of Jehozadak, 1  along with the whole remnant of the people, 2  obeyed 3  the Lord their God. They responded favorably to the message of the prophet Haggai, who spoke just as the Lord their God had instructed him, 4  and the people began to respect the Lord. 5  1:14 So the Lord energized and encouraged 6  Zerubbabel 7  son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, the high priest Joshua son of Jehozadak, 8  and the whole remnant of the people. 9  They came and worked on the temple of their God, the Lord who rules over all.
