Löydetty 866 Tulokset: Jerusalem's Reconstruction
There was gold ware and silver in the temple of our God; all this Nabuchodonosor had carried off from Jerusalem and laid it up in another temple, there at Babylon. What did Cyrus? He stripped the Babylonian temple in his turn; all must be given over to one Sassabasar, the man he had appointed to rule us; (Ezra 5, 14)

moreover that if there is need of calves, lambs or kids for burnt-sacrifice to the God of heaven, or of corn, salt, wine and oil to perform the ceremonies practised at Jerusalem, supplies of these should be given them daily, without fail. (Ezra 6, 9)
And may the God, who has made Jerusalem the shrine of his name, destroy every kingdom and people which attempts to injure or destroy this temple of his that is built there. I, Darius, am the author of this decree, and will have it carried out with all diligence. (Ezra 6, 12)
Row upon row the priests stood, turn and turn about the Levites ministered, as the law of Moses bade them, doing the Lord’s errand there at Jerusalem. (Ezra 6, 18)
Some of the common folk made the journey to Jerusalem with him, as well as priests, Levites, singers, door-keepers and Nathinaeans. This was in the seventh year of king Artaxerxes; (Ezra 7, 7)
they reached Jerusalem in the fifth month of this seventh year, (Ezra 7, 8)
My will is, that any Israelite, priest or Levite who desires it should have leave to accompany thee to Jerusalem. (Ezra 7, 13)
