Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary on the Old Testament: On an Original Plan; With Critical and Explanatory Notes, Indices, &C. &C I. The Nature of the Book. The Book of Ezra was correctly characterised by Bishop Hilary as a continuation of the Books of. Chronicles. The Second Book of Chronicles brings the history of the people of Israel down to the destruction of the Temple of Jehovah and of the city of Jerusalem, and the carrying captive into Babylon such of the people that remained in the land. The Book of Ezra takes up the history of the nation at the close of the seventy years of captivity, and tells of the return of some of the exiles to Jerusalem under Zerubbabel prince of Judah, and by permission of Cyrus king of Persia, of the restoration of the worship of Jehovah and the rebuilding of His Temple by them, of the return of a second company of exiles many years afterwards under Ezra, the celebrated priest and scribe, and by permission of Artaxerxes king of Persia, and of the social and religious reformation which was accomplished under Ezra. And some portion of this history is given in contemporary historical documents, which seem to have been written from time to time by the prophets, or other authorised persons, who were eyewitnesses for the most part of what they record, and were collected by the author and incorporated by him into his work.
