3. VaJudha vakanga vakundikana kuzivei pamusoro pechinangwa chokudzokera kwavo kubva muutapwa?

³ Neiko Jehovha akatuma Hagai? Nokuda kweichi chikonzero: Muna 537 B.C.E., Koreshi abudisa murayiro waibvumidza vaJudha kudzokera kunyika yokumusha kwavo kuti vavakezve imba yaJehovha. Asi zvino akanga ava 520 B.C.E., uye tembere yakanga ichiri kure zvikuru nokupedzwa. Makore ose iwaya vaJudha vakanga varega chishoro chavavengi pamwe chete nokusaitira hanya kwavo nokudisa zvenyika zvichivadzivisa kuziva chinangwa chimene chokudzokera kwavo.—Ezra 1:1-4; 3:10-13; 4:1-24; Hag. 1:4.

 8. Neiko vaJudha vasiri kukomborerwa mune zvekunyama naJehovha?

⁸ Shoko rokutanga (1:1-15). Irori rinonangidzirwa kuna Gavhuna Zerubhabheri noMuprista Mukuru Joshua, asi vanhu vachinzwa. Vanhu vave vachiti, “Nguva ichigere kusvika, iyo nguva yokuvakwa kweimba yaJehovha.” Jehovha kupfurikidza naHagai anobvunza mubvunzo unonzvera, kuti: “Ko zvino inguva yamungagara imi mudzimba dzenyu dzakashongedzwa namatanda, imba ino riri dongo here?” (1:2, 4) Vakadyara zvakawanda nenzira yokunyama, asi zvakavabetsera zvishomanene mune zvokudya, zvokunwa, nezvokupfeka. “Cherekedzai zvamakaita,” anorayira kudaro Jehovha. (1:7) Nguva yasvika yokuunza matanda ndokuvaka imba, kuti Jehovha agokudzwa. VaJudha vari kutarisira zvakanaka dzimba dzavo vamene, asi imba yaJehovha idongo. Naizvozvo, Jehovha akadzivisa dova redenga newedzero yomumunda nechikomborero chake kuti zvisave pamunhu nokushanda kwake.
