Ezra was one of those leaders who returned to bring back the splendor of the city and temple of old Jerusalem. Ezra and others faced opposition from outsiders and even those who returned home, bringing their bad habits. Ezra passionately opposed the sin of countrymen and fought for God.
The Book of Ezra reclaims the hope of rebuilding Jerusalem. Jerusalem fell on hard times when they worshipped other gods. God allowed the Babylonian army to invade what was left of Israel and ship off their best and brightest people to enemy territory. Decades later, the Persian army took over Babylonian territory and the new leadership allowed the displaced Jews to return.
Ezra was one of those leaders who returned to bring back the splendor of the old Jerusalem, including rebuilding the temple. It would take some time. Ezra and others faced opposition from outsiders and even the Jews who got to return home, but brought their bad habits. Ezra passionately opposed the sin of his own and fought for God.
Take this quiz about Ezra and discover what you know about city re-development, especially trying to re-establish God's favorite city.
