Haggai 2:6-8 and the Fulfillment of the Glorious Temple in the New Testament

In the previous lessons we discussed Hababbuk, chapters 1 and 2, to demonstrate how they were fulfilled historically and eschatologically. Today we examine Haggai 2:6-8 to see again how the prophets applied the text and how the Apostles applied the text in the last days. Each of these examples provide insights for the imminent return of Christ in the first century. Haggai prophesied of a temple that would exceed the glory of the first temple (Solomon's) and clearly Zerubbabel's temple fell short of that goal.
