Hello, Everyone! I checked in early yesterday, but I didn't see anyone else's posts about the Thursday questions. Now that other people have answered, I'll take my turn.
1. Who was the book written to? Habakkuk doesn't have a specified audience. The book reads as a dialogue between Habakkuk and God. Habakkuk never addresses the people directly throughout the 3 chapters.
2. When was it written? Habakkuk was written around 610-605 B.C.
3. What is the setting? What was going on during this time in history? Habakkuk lived in Judah during a time of great rebelling against God. Babylon was just coming into power. Habakkuk was a contemporary of Jeremiah.
4. Just for fun, what does the name Habakkuk mean? Habakkuk means "embrace."
