Hageo 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.

Hageo 2:17 In-Context

15 "Ahora pues, considerad bien esto de hoy en adelante: antes que se pusiera piedra sobre piedra en el templo del SEÑOR,
16 desde aquel tiempo, venía alguno a un montón de veinte medidas, y había solo diez; venía alguno al lagar para sacar cincuenta cántaros, y había solo veinte.
17 "Os herí con viento abrasador, con añublo y con granizo en toda obra de vuestras manos; pero ninguno de vosotros se volvió a mí"declara el SEÑOR.
18 "Pero considerad bien esto desde hoy en adelante, desde el día veinticuatro del mes noveno; desde el día en que se pusieron los cimientos del templo del SEÑOR, considerad bien:
19 "¿Está todavía la semilla en el granero? Todavía la vid, la higuera, el granado y el olivo no han dado fruto; pero desde hoy yo os bendeciré."
