Good Morning! We have completed the Book of Habakkuk in the Old Testament. Thomas and I, share a few of our thoughts with you. Habakkuk, minister during the during the ” death throes” of the nation of Judah. Although repeatedly called to repentance, the nation stubbornly refuse to change her sinful ways.. Habakkuk, knowing the hardheartedness of his countryman, asks God how long this intolerable condition can condition. God replies that the Babylonians will be His catering rod upon the nation. An announcement that sends the prophet to his knees. He acknowledges that the just in any generation shall live by faith.. (Habakkuk 2:4), not by sight. Habakkuk concludes by praising God’s wisdom even though he does not fully understand God’s ways. Habaqqua is a unusual Hebrew name derived from the verb habaq, embrace. Thus his name probably means “One Whole Embrace” or Clings at the end of his book this name become appropriate because Habakkuk chooses to cling firmly to God regardless of what happens to this nation (Habakkuk 3:16-19) The Greek title in the septuagi is Ambakouk, and the Latin title in Jerome’s Vulgate is Habacuc.
