Have you ever stood in a place that you sense will someday be very special, perhaps even a famous place? Join me again back in Jerusalem about 2500 year ago, at the construction site of a building which, even though being built amidst rubble, was one day going to be very special indeed! We’re on the Temple mount with Haggai the prophet and hundreds of Jewish exiles who have returned from Babylon, feverishly working to clear away rubble and rebuild the Temple of God. What rubble you ask? Well rubble from the first Temple, King Solomon’s Temple, which was demolished by King Nebuchadnezzar 66 years before. (2 Chronicles 36:15-21)
