this word properly denotes a ring .
The impression of a signet ring on fine clay has recently been discovered among the ruins at Nineveh .
It bears the name and title of an Egyptian king .
Two actual signet rings of ancient Egyptian monarchs (
Cheops and Horus )
have also been discovered .
When digging a shaft close to the south wall of the temple area ,
the engineers of the Palestine Exploration Fund ,
at a depth of 12 feet below the surface ,
came upon a pavement of polished stones ,
formerly one of the streets of the city .
Under this pavement they found a stratum of 16 feet of concrete ,
and among this concrete ,
10 feet down ,
they found a signet stone bearing the inscription ,
in Old Hebrew characters , "
Haggai ,
son of Shebaniah ."
It has been asked ,
Might not this be the actual seal of Haggai the prophet ?
We know that he was in Jerusalem after the Captivity ;
and it is somewhat singular that he alone of all the minor prophets makes mention of a signet (
Hag .
