ADVENTURES OF EZRA & NEHEMIAH
(Message by Tanny Keng)
1. Adventures Of Ezra And Nehemiah
a) The Medo-Persian rule. Artaxerxes is king of Persia. The rebuilding, religious restoration, and resettling of the remnant in Jerusalem, is led by Ezra and Nehemiah.
2. Ezra And Nehemiah
a) Ezra and Nehemiah take up the struggle to resettle the remnant of Judah and Israel in Judah.
b) Three things are going on in Jerusalem:
i) Physical rebuilding of the city. Having rebuilt the temple, the walls and gates are now the focus. Opposition to this rebuilding is strong.
ii) Religious reform where the errors of the past are regretted and the present sins are corrected. A document is prayerfully prepared that dedicates the people to their covenant with God.
iii) The over-riding providence of God fulfilling his promise to preserve a remnant of the people with a view to the coming of Christ.
