While scholars address questions of ritual and space in the Haggai–Zechariah 1–8 corpus, they often treat these themes as separate issues, frequently granting primacy to space. Such an emphasis is understandable in studies of a corpus that foregrounds the urgency of rebuilding the temple as the necessary precondition for the resumption of ritual activity. This book develops an interdisciplinary framework that integrates insights from ritual studies and critical spatiality to examine the dynamic interrelationship between ritual and space. In contrast to the prevailing tendency, it argues that the Haggai–Zechariah 1–8 corpus purposefully portrays rituals not merely as practices that take place within space but as practices that fundamentally produce the lived and ideological aspects of God’s, the people’s, and nature’s space in the postexilic period.
