📚 Historical Context
The Book of Haggai was written around 520 BC to the Jewish people who had returned from exile in Babylon, urging them to rebuild the temple as God commanded. However, they had become distracted by their own homes and personal affairs, leading to unfruitfulness in their lives and a neglect of God's priorities. In Haggai 1:7, the Lord calls them to reflect on their choices and realign their focus.
