Haggai 2. 7, 8. Yet once again (that is but a little) and I will shake the Heavens and the Earth, and I will move all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come, and I will fill this House with glory saith the Lord of Hosts.
Haggai 2. 7, 8. Yet once againe (that is but a little) and I will shake the Heavens and the Earth, and I will move all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come, and I will fill this House with glory saith the Lord of Hostes.
OF the three most gracious promises whereby the Lord encouraged Zerubbabel, and the residue of the Jews to go forward in the building of the Temple, the second, (in these words ensuing) doth declare that our Saviour Christ by his presence, and powerful preaching to the salvation of them that should believe, would replenish this house with glory; A blessing which how excellent it is, we are by St. Paul. Eph. 1. 18. and Col. 1. 17. sufficiently taught, and this is both compared to and amplified by the benefit which the people had in their deliverance out of ⟨p. 117⟩Egypt, mentioned in the former verse, when he saith here, yet once that is small, for so it is in the original, which is diversly supplied by the learned interpreters, some thinking here a short time to be meant put it thus, (after, or yet a little while) as if it had bin spoken to comfort the godly in the shortness of the time as Isay 10. Hab. 2. Heb. 10. others deeming the thing before spoken of to be meant, which sense I take to be more agreeable to the place, read it by a parenthesis, yet once (I that is a small thing) viz. to bring them out of Egypt, Isle do a greater matter, which kind of phrase we have also.
