Haggai Eshed is an Israeli professor and retired general who previously headed Israel's space security program. He gained attention for his claims of extraterrestrial life contact and exploration on Earth. Eshed has not authored books as a primary focus, but his statements have sparked discussions on UFOs and aliens.
Some say the object of the Book of Haggai seems to be to immortalise Haggai by giving him credit for commencement of the Temple, suggesting that the book was written much later when there were no longer any witnesses to refute the claim. On that view, Haggai could not have been the real author. We simply do not know.

The book that comes before Haggai in the old testament is Zephaniah.
Haggai was known as one of the minor prophets and served as such during the reign of Darius. Most of the prophecies of Haggai are concerned mainly with rebuilding the temples after the Babylonian Captivity.
It is believed that Haggai was a Jew, born in Babylon, who returned to Jerusalem with Zerubbabel and the Jews after the exile, in 537 B.C.E., but the Scriptures do not name the prophet's parents or tribe. He was the first postexilic Hebrew prophet in Judah and Jerusalem during the reign of King Darius Hystaspis (Haggai 1:1; Haggai 2:1,10+20; Ezra 5:1+2)and was joined shortly thereafter by Zechariah. (Haggai 1:1; Zechariah 1:1). Haggai and Zechariah encouraged the Jewish exiles to rebuild the Temple (Ezra 3:10-13; 4:1-24; Haggai 1:4)(Haggai 1:1; 2:1,10+20) until it was completed in 515 B.C.E.(Ezra 5:1, 2; 6:14, 15).
The exact age at which Haggai died is not explicitly mentioned in historical or biblical records.
