What bible did Habakkuk name come from?
Habakkuk is found in the Old Testament. Habakkuk was a prophet of God and the message he preached is in the book that is named after him. Habakkuk was from the tribe of Levi and probably was a member of the Levitical temple choir.
How did Habakkuk become a prophet?
The Scripture is silent as to how but in the Book of Habakkuk, his being a prophet is mentioned two-times so others must have known he was. A Hebrew prophet was directly called by God to be His spokesman and give His message. Many began their statements with 'thus says the Lord' to emphasize this point.
How did people react to prophet habbukkuk's message?
What is faith? Why does God allow people to suffer? Why does God not punish the wicked immediately? About 605 B.C. God called a sensitive man to show His people God's purposes as the wicked Babylonians gained control of the world and made demands on Judah. Habakkuk used dialog with God and a hymn from the temple to show what faith is, why God would use such a wicked people as Babylon, and why God would let his people suffer. Habakkuk shows: a prophet can be perplexed at God's rule of history. God wants persistent commitment to and trust in him; and a psalm of confidence expresses faith in tumultuous times. Habakkuk is a call to faith for people who see no hope.
How is habakkuk related to advent?
Habakkuk is a book about waiting, closely aligned with the waiting spirit of Advent. Habakkuk is waiting for deliverance from the Babylonian Empire, and concerned that God will not bring such deliverance. In many ways, Habakkuk's concerns echo the concerns of the people that the promised hero, or Messiah, will not come. God's response to Habakkuk is that of hopeful waiting, and Habakkuk ends by praising God. The praise offered by Habakkuk is a testimony to how we live in Advent. Although we wait for the return of Jesus and get discouraged with how awful the world can get, nevertheless God is active and working and worthy of our praise. Hopefully that helps.
