This book shows how the minor prophet encouraged the Jewish people to build a second temple.
They listened to Haggai's encouragement and built the temple, completed in 515 BC under the leadership of Zerubbabel, a Jewish leader and Persian ruler of Davidic origin.
The first temple, a symbol of Jewish faith and unity, was erected by King Solomon. Its destruction by the Babylonians during the exile marked a significant turning point in Jewish history, paving the way for the construction of the second temple.
Today, only a portion of the temple's outer wall remains, and it is presumed that behind it was the Holy of Holies, where God's presence abide.
