Description
The circumstances of the Jewish people when they returned from exile in Babylon contain many lessons for the Church today because our circumstances are strikingly similar. In both cases, the people of God are under unbelieving rule, the worship of God needs to be restored, ignorance of the Scriptures is widespread, and resources appear to be few. In troubled times like ours, the books of Ezra and Nehemiah offer much guidance.
