(KJV) Malachi 1:1
The burden of the word of the Lord to Israel by Malachi.
MALACHI / MALACHI 1:1
Malachi prophesied about 100 years after the first had returned from Babylon to their homeland. The exiles were Jews who had been captured by the Babylonians that invaded the nation of Judah over a period of years and finally destroyed its capital of Jerusalem in 586 B.B (2 Kings 24:1; 25:1) The captives then were sent to regions throughout the empire. Large groups of Jews had returned in stages through the years to rebuild the temple, the city and, finally, the city walls (see the books of Ezra and Nehemiah). At first, the people responded to their freedom and the rebuilding projects with great excitement and passion for God’s plans. However, their commitment to the Lord weakened as the years went by. Around 430 B.C., Malachi challenged the people about their lack of trust in God, their fake worship and their refusal to obey God’s law.
