EZRA 2 ©

Readers’ Version

Literal Version

2Out of the captives that King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon had brought as slaves to Babylon, these are their descendants who returned to Yerushalem in Yehudah—each person returning to their own ancestral town. 2The ones who went with Zerubbabel were: Yeshua, Nehemyah, Serayah, Re’elayah, Mordecai, Bilshan, Mispar, Bigvai, Rehum, and Ba’anah.

Their numbers were:

21And from these towns:

36The priests who returned:

40The Levites who returned:

43The temple servants who returned:

55The descendants of Shelomoh’s (Solomon’s) servants who returned:

58Altogether there were 392 descendants of temple workers and Shelomoh’s servants who returned.

59Another group went from the towns of Tel-Melah, Tel-Harsha, Keruv, Addon, and Immer, but they didn’t know their ancestry from before they were taken as captives.

60There were 652 people who were descendants of Delayah, Toviyyah, and Nekoda, 61and from the sons of the priests: the descendants of Havayyah; the descendants of Hakkots; and the descendants of Barzillai, who took a wife from the daughters of Barzillai the Gileadite, so he was called by their name. 62They had searched for their records among the genealogies, but couldn’t find their families listed, so they were disqualified to serve as priests. 63Also the governor told them that they mustn’t eat any of the holiest food until a priest could use the Urim and Thummim to determine their status.[ref]

64Altogether in this group, 42,360 people returned to Yehudah. 65not counting their 7,337 male and female servants, plus 200 male and female musicians. 66They also took 736 horses and 245 mules, 67435 camels and 6,720 donkeys.

68When some of the heads of families got to Yahweh’s temple in Yerushalem, they freely donated so that it could be rebuilt. 69They each donated to the treasury according to their individual resourcesa total of sixty-one thousand gold coins, five thousand silver bars, and a hundred sets of clothing for the priests.

70So the priests and the Levites, and some of the people, and the singers, and the gatekeepers and the temple servants returned to live in their ancestral cities, and so all the Israeli cities had returnees living in them.[ref]

Temple of the Lord

The Temple of the Lord in Jerusalem, where all Israelite males were commanded to offer sacrifices to the Lord (Exodus 23:14-19; Deuteronomy 16:16-17), underwent several stages of reconstruction and development over hundreds of years. The first Temple was built by King Solomon to replace the aging Tabernacle, and it was constructed on a threshing floor on high ground on the north side of the city (2 Samuel 24; 1 Chronicles 21). Hundreds of years later King Hezekiah expanded the platform surrounding the Temple. When Jerusalem fell to the Babylonians in 586 B.C., the Temple was completely destroyed (2 Kings 25:1-21; 2 Chronicles 36:17-21; Jeremiah 39:1-10; 52:1-30). It was rebuilt in 515 B.C. after a group of Jews returned to Judea from exile in Babylon (Ezra 1:5-6:15; Nehemiah 7:5-65). Herod the Great completely rebuilt and expanded the Temple once again around 20 B.C., making it one of the largest temples in the Roman world. Jesus’ first believers often met together in Solomon’s Colonnade, a columned porch that encircled the Temple Mount, perhaps carrying on a tradition started by Jesus himself (John 10:23; Acts 3:11; 5:12). But Herod’s Temple did not last long: After many Jews revolted against Rome, the Romans eventually recaptured Jerusalem and destroyed the Temple in A.D. 70.
