Haggai and Zechariah – see Ezra 5: 1

Joyce Voysey

A note on Haggai:  It seems he was old, probably about 80 years, because he had seen the old temple which had been destroyed (inferred in Hag. 2:2).  He tells the people that God is telling them that their troubles will be alleviated if they will get to work and build the house (temple):  “Ye have sown much, and bring in little; ye eat, but ye have not enough; ye drink, but ye are not filled with drink; ye clothe you, but there is none warm; and he that earneth wages to put it into a bag with holes.  Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Consider your ways.  Go up to the mountain, and bring wood, and build the house...” Hag.1:6 – 8 (to ;)  

Zechariah was young, apparently.  He finds the Lord telling him that he is displeased with the fathers who have done no building all these years.  Zechariah had visions where
angels communicated with him and he interpreted these to the people.

By golly!  Now one needs to study Haggai and Zechariah!

Haggai and Zechariah are classed as ‘minor prophets.’  Dummelow says Haggai was a layman and Zechariah of priestly descent. 

A Bible scholar asked a class: When did the last prophet live? 

See the Glossary to Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy p. 593.  We might find that, as students of divine Science we are all prophets, spiritual seers, though perhaps not consistently.  So, the answer is they are still living and prophesying.
