Learn of the often-skipped-over world of Ezra-Nehemiah—of Israel after their exile.

What is the message of Ezra and Nehemiah? Why did God's people return from exile? Why were the Temple and Jerusalem so important? And what do these books teach Christians today?

In this Bible overview, we explore the historical setting, structure, and major themes of Ezra and Nehemiah. Learn how God fulfilled His promises by bringing His people back from Babylonian exile, rebuilding the Temple, restoring Jerusalem, and renewing covenant faithfulness among His people.

We'll examine:
• The return from exile under Persian rule
• Cyrus's decree and the rebuilding of the Temple
• The ministries of Ezra and Nehemiah
• The rebuilding of Jerusalem's walls
• Opposition from surrounding nations
• Covenant renewal and true worship
• Connections to Daniel, Haggai, Zechariah, Chronicles, and the New Testament

These often-overlooked books reveal God's faithfulness, the importance of worship, and the necessity of spiritual renewal among God's covenant people.
