Contextual Overview
1 On the twenty-first day of the seventh month, this word of Adonai came through Hagai the prophet: 2 "Speak now to Z'rubavel the son of Sh'alti'el, governor of Y'hudah, and to Y'hoshua the son of Y'hotzadak, the cohen hagadol, and to the rest of the people; say this to them: 3 ‘"Who among you is left that saw this house in its former glory? And how does it look to you now? It seems like nothing to you, doesn't it? 4 Nevertheless, Z'rubavel, take courage now," says Adonai ; "and take courage, Y'hoshua the son of Y'hotzadak, the cohen hagadol; and take courage, all you people of the land," says Adonai ; "and get to work! For I am with you," says Adonai -Tzva'ot. 5 "This is in keeping with the word that I promised in a covenant with you when you came out of Egypt, and my Spirit remains with you, so don't be afraid!" 6 For this is what Adonai -Tzva'ot says: "It won't be long before one more time I will shake the heavens and the earth, the sea and the dry land; 7 and I will shake all the nations, so that the treasures of all the nations will flow in; and I will fill this house with glory," says Adonai -Tzva'ot. 8 "The silver is mine, and the gold is mine," says Adonai -Tzva'ot. 9 "The glory of this new house will surpass that of the old," says Adonai -Tzva'ot, "and in this place I will grant shalom," says Adonai -Tzva'ot.'"

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Speak now to Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah,.... Of whom, his descent and dignity, :-. The Septuagint version wrongly renders it "of the tribe of Judah"; in which it is followed by the Arabic version; for, though he was of the tribe of Judah, this does not sufficiently distinguish him; nor does it answer to the word here used, which is expressive of his office and dignity. The Vulgate Latin version, Luther, and Castalio, omit the particle × ×, rendered "now", which is very emphatic. The prophet is ordered to go and say what he is bid, directly, immediately, at once, without any delay; the very day before mentioned, yea, at that very instant or moment, the people being now at work, under the eye of their governor; in order to remove an offence, which might discourage them in their work, taken from the meanness of the building, in comparison of the former temple:
and to Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, and to the residue of the people; these, besides the two former, even the whole body of the people, the remnant that were come out of the captivity of Babylon:
saying; to the above persons, as follows:
