Written by: Torrie Slaughter
The book of Ezra-Nehemiah is one disappointment after another. Each section takes us on an emotional roller coaster. We are filled with hope as the children of Israel return from Babylonian captivity. They are supplied with resources and spiritual wisdom to rebuild their community. (Hallelujah!) The list of the exiles returning to reclaim their land gives us a reason for belief. A heartfelt joy that the world would see God magnified.
