BOOK OF HABAKKUB BIBLE STUDY

Habakkuk is the only prophet to devote his entire work to the question of the justice of God’s government of the world. Habakkuk’s challenge is set up as a dialogue between the prophet and God, in which Habakkuk’s opening complaint about injustices in Judean society is followed by God’s promise that the perpetrators will be punished by invading Chaldeans, Babylonians. Habakkuk’s second complaint about the violence of the Chaldeans themselves is followed by a second divine response assuring the prophet of the reliability of God’s rule and calling for human faithfulness.
​Two important events frame Habakkuk’s prophecy: the great Babylonian (Chaldean) victory over the Egyptians at Carchemish (605 B.C.) and the second Babylonian invasion of Judah (587 B.C.), which ended with the destruction of Jerusalem. The desperate conditions in Judah during these years, arising from internal and external threats, provoked Habakkuk’s struggle with difficult and important theological questions about divine 
justice.
Author: Habakkuk
Date of Writing: c. 606 B.C. 
Theme or Purpose: Living By Faith / Trusting God’s Judgment 
Unlike Jeremiah (who lived during the same time period), Habakkuk does not address his message to the spiritually backslidden and rebellious people of Judah. Instead, his writings were aimed at the few who had remained faithful to God. He tried to help them understand how and why God was about to take certain actions against their sinful nation. Habakkuk had already personally wrested with the disturbing issue of God using terribly wicked people like the Babylonians to punish his own people (Habakkuk 1:6-13). For this reason, Habakkuk was able to assure fellow believers of God’s promise to deal with all wickedness in the right time and way. In the meantime, they would have to take comfort in the fat that “the righteous will live by his faith” (Habakkuk 2:4). Even though they would not understand everything, they could still “rejoice in the LORD” their Savior (Habakkuk 3:18).
​Habakkuk is a short Book of only 3 chapters. In this study we will read a chapter a day, or at your own pace. I will give a summary of each chapter. Please feel free to leave your comments and thoughts below so we can discuss them. 
​I look forward to having you join me for this online Bible study. Invite your friends and family to!
Let’s Pray:
“Lord, thank you for this time you’ve given me to open your Word and discover who you are. Thank you that you don’t leave us in the dark about who you are and what you are doing in the world, but that you have revealed yourself and your will through the Bible, your sacred words to us. Lord, I need wisdom as I read your Word. You promise us in James 1:5 that we only have to ask for wisdom to receive it. Lord, please give me your wisdom now as I approach your word. Help me discern the truth of this text. Help me not rely on my own understanding. Thank you God for the clarity, encouragement and hope your Word brings.
​In Jesus’ Name I pray, Amen.”

    ​All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.
