Ezra 4 Chapter Introduction

Structure and Formatting

The story of the building of the temple and re-establishment of the temple worship continues in this chapter. (See: temple)

Religious and Cultural Concepts in This Chapter

Helping to build the temple

The people of the surrounding nations offered to help to build the temple. It is unknown why the Jews refused their help, although it seems likely that the Jews considered these people to not truly belong to the people of God. These other people became their enemies and tried to hinder the work. They even persuaded the king of Persia to stop the Jews from building.
