Ageu 1:10 Meaning and Commentary

Haggai 1:10

Therefore the heaven over you is stayed from dew
Or, "therefore over", or "upon you" F1; where should be a stop; that is, because, of your neglect of the house of God; therefore upon you, and upon you only, and not upon other nations, the heaven is restrained from letting down the dew: or, "therefore I am against you" F2; for the above reason, and which the following things show; and sad it is to have God to be an enemy, and against a people! or, "for your sake"; so the Syriac version, to which sense is the Targum,

``therefore for your sins;''
and so Jarchi, "the heaven is stayed from dew"; none descends from it; the Lord, who has the ordering of it, will not suffer it: to have the dew fall upon the earth in the night season is a great blessing; it makes the earth fruitful, revives the corn, plants, and herbs, and causes them to flourish and increase; and to have it restrained is a judgment: and the earth is stayed [from] her fruit;
from bringing forth its increase, which is the consequence of the dew being withheld.

Ageu 1:10 In-Context

8 Subam o monte para trazer madeira. Construam o templo, para que eu me alegre e nele seja glorificado”, diz o SENHOR.
9 “Vocês esperavam muito, mas, eis que veio pouco. E o que vocês trouxeram para casa eu dissipei com um sopro. E por que o fiz?”, pergunta o SENHOR dos Exércitos. “Por causa do meu templo, que ainda está destruído enquanto cada um de vocês se ocupa com a sua própria casa.
10 Por isso, por causa de vocês, o céu reteve o orvalho e a terra deixou de dar o seu fruto.
11 Nos campos e nos montes provoquei uma seca que atingiu o trigo, o vinho, o azeite e tudo mais que a terra produz, e também os homens e o gado. O trabalho das mãos de vocês foi prejudicado”.
12 Zorobabel, filho de Sealtiel, o sumo sacerdote Josué, filho de Jeozadaque, e todo o restante do povo obedeceram à voz do SENHOR, o seu Deus, por causa das palavras do profeta Ageu, a quem o SENHOR, o seu Deus, enviara. E o povo temeu o SENHOR.
