• The more we learn of God, the more we should cultivate lowliness of mind. This does not imply that you should have indecision in your convictions, but that along with this you have a just sense of your own weakness, and that you are broken in spirit, remembering how the glory of the Lord has suffered by the failure of His people. It was quite right, therefore, that they should feel the feeble condition of all that bore the name of Jehovah in their midst. (“Haggai 2” by W. Kelly)
• “The former glory of this house” (Hag. 2:3) consisted in its possession of the Urim and Thummim, the ark, the tables written by God’s finger, and the visible glory. (“Haggai 2” by W. Kelly)
