In this short shiur, Rabbanit Shani Taragin focuses on the first chapter of Haggai. Haggai tries to urge the returnees to Zion to recognize that God is in their midst and that it is time to rebuild the Beit HaMikdash. On the first day of Elul, Haggai turns to the people to look at their past actions and begin a process of transformation. He tells them that they can still change their fate for the coming year.
