Ageu 2:17 Meaning and Commentary

Haggai 2:17

I smote you with blasting
That is, their fields and vineyards, with burning winds, which consumed them; with blights by east winds: this shows the reason of their disappointment, and that it was from the Lord, and for their sins, by way of chastisement and correction: and with mildew;
a kind of clammy dew, which corrupts and destroys the fruits of the earth; and is a kind of jaundice to them, as the word signifies; see ( Amos 4:9 ) : and with hail;
which battered down the corn and the vines, and broke them to pieces; see ( Exodus 9:25 ) : in all the labours of your hands;
in the corn they sowed, and in the vines they planted: yet ye [turned] not to me, saith the Lord;
did not consider their evil ways as the cause of all this; nor repent of them, and turn from them to the Lord; to his worship, as the Targum; or to the building of his house, the thing chiefly complained of. Afflictions, unless sanctified, have no effect upon men to turn them from their sins to the Lord.

Ageu 2:17 In-Context

15 Agora considerai o que acontece desde aquele dia. Antes que se lançasse pedra sobre pedra no templo do Senhor,
16 quando alguém vinha a um montão de trigo de vinte medidas, havia somente dez; quando vinha ao lagar para tirar cinqüenta, havia somente vinte.
17 Feri-vos com mangra, e com ferrugem, e com saraiva, em todas as obras das vossas mãos; e não houve entre vós quem voltasse para mim, diz o Senhor.
18 Considerai, pois, eu vos rogo, desde este dia em diante, desde o vigésimo quarto dia do mês nono, desde o dia em que se lançaram os alicerces do templo do Senhor, sim, considerai essas coisas.
19 Está ainda semente no celeiro? A videira, a figueira, a romeira, e a oliveira ainda não dão os seus frutos? Desde este dia hei de vos abençoar.
