Sermons on Ezra 4

As the returned exiles rebuild the temple, the adversaries of Judah and Benjamin ask to join the work, saying they seek the same God, but Zerubbabel, Jeshua, and the heads of fathers’ houses refuse. These opponents then discourage the people and hire counselors against them. The chapter also reports later accusations sent to Ahasuerus and Artaxerxes against Jerusalem, including a letter from Rehum and Shimshai. Artaxerxes orders the work stopped, and the rebuilding in Jerusalem ceases until the second year of Darius. Themes include opposition to God’s people and the interruption of restoration.
