AB 25B: Haggai Zechariah 1-8
A New Translation with Introduction and Commentary.
Haggai and Zechariah 1-8 were written during a critical period in Israel's
history, the momentous return of the Jews from Babylonian exile. Following the
conquest of Babylon by the Persian Empire, the Israelites sought to reestablish
their ethnic and religious legacy in Judah. This was a time of profound turmoil
and uncertainty, and Haggai and Zechariah provided a crucial measure of support
and inspiration. They rallied Israel's energies and exhorted their fellow
countrymen to heed the word of God. Under their guidance the Jews restored the
Temple at Jerusalem, which had been destroyed by the armies of Nebuchadnezzar.
Together the two prophets guided Israel through an important transitional
epoch, and reconciled the influences of Persia's dominion with the sacred
traditions of the Hebrew people.
In this illuminating new translation and commentary, Carol and Eric Meyers
consider the Book of Haggai and the first eight chapters of the Book of
Zechariah in a linguistic, social, and historical context. They underscore the
literary artistry, the political acumen, and the prophetic authority of these
fascinating volumes that proved so vital to the survival of Israel and the
preservation of the Jewish faith. (= 0385514468 / 9780385514460)
The Meyers treat Haggai and Zechariah 1 - 8 not only as stemming from the " same period of time, but also as two parts of the same composite work. The
Meyers are archaeologists, so their commentary is full of helpful historical
and archaeological comments. The authors include an excellent
bibliography. - Tremper Longman"
