Ezra 5:1 חַגַּ֣י Haggai

Later, the prophets Haggai and Zechariah son of Iddo prophesied to the Jews in Judah and Jerusalem in the name of the God of Israel, who was over them.

Ezra 6:14 חַגַּ֣י Haggai

So the Jewish elders built and prospered through the prophesying of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah son of Iddo. They finished building according to the command of the God of Israel and the decrees of Cyrus, Darius, and Artaxerxes, kings of Persia.

Here: The prophet whose dated oracles (520 BC, Darius's second year) rebuked the delay and called for the temple to be rebuilt. His name probably comes from ḥag, 'festival'.

Haggai 1:1 חַגַּ֣י Haggai

In the second year of the reign of Darius, on the first day of the sixth month, the word of the LORD came through Haggai the prophet to Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest, stating

Here: A name built on ḥag, 'pilgrim festival', so roughly 'Festal' or 'born on a feast day'. The name is also found in Jewish Aramaic documents from Elephantine in Egypt. No father or hometown is given, only his role.

Haggai 1:3 חַגַּ֥י Haggai

Then the word of the LORD came through Haggai the prophet, saying:

Here: A personal name that probably means 'festive' or 'born on a feast day', from ḥag, 'pilgrimage festival'. No father or hometown is given. He is known only by his role.

Haggai 1:12 חַגַּ֣י Haggai

Then Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel and Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest, as well as all the remnant of the people, obeyed the voice of the LORD their God and the words of the prophet Haggai, because the LORD their God had sent him. So the people feared the LORD.

Here: The prophet's name comes from chag, 'pilgrimage festival', so it means something like 'festive one' and perhaps marks a birth on a feast day.

Haggai 1:13 חַגַּ֞י Haggai

Haggai, the messenger of the LORD, delivered the message of the LORD to the people: “I am with you,” declares the LORD.

Here: The prophet's name, probably built on ḥag, 'pilgrimage festival', so roughly 'festive' or 'born on a feast'. It fits a prophet whose whole concern is the temple, but the text does not make anything of the name.

Haggai 2:1 חַגַּ֥י Haggai

On the twenty-first day of the seventh month, the word of the LORD came through Haggai the prophet, saying:

Haggai 2:10 חַגַּ֥י Haggai

On the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, in the second year of Darius, the word of the LORD came to Haggai the prophet, saying,

Here: The prophet's name, probably meaning 'festal' or 'born on a feast day', from ḥag, 'pilgrim feast'. The book tells us nothing about his family.

Haggai 2:13 חַגַּ֔י Haggai

So Haggai asked, “If one who is defiled by contact with a corpse touches any of these, does it become defiled?” “Yes, it becomes defiled,” the priests answered.

Here: The prophet's name, probably related to ḥag, "festival" (perhaps meaning "born on a feast day"). Here he acts as the questioner who sets up a legal ruling that he will then apply (v. 14).

Haggai 2:14 חַגַּ֜י Haggai

Then Haggai replied, “So it is with this people and this nation before Me, declares the LORD, and so it is with every work of their hands; whatever they offer there is defiled.

Haggai 2:20 חַגַּ֔י Haggai

For the second time that day, the twenty-fourth day of the month, the word of the LORD came to Haggai, saying,
