Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Ezra 3:1-13

Chapter 3And when the seventh month was come, the children of Israel were in the cities, the people gathered themselves together as one man to Jerusalem.

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Ezra 3:1-13

They had left Babylon in the spring; and being four months on their journey, the priests hasted the erection of the altar. Ezra 3:2 . Jeshua and Zerubbabel.

Before setting themselves to their tasks they kept the feast of tabernacles. The full repression of our religious joy, even though it be prolonged,... read more

Ezra 3:4As the duty of every day required.The work of the day in the dayTime in the hands of many--I use the words of Solomon--is “a price in the hand of fools.” They know not its value. It is in the margin, “the matter of the day in his day.” This has grown into a proverbial saying among those who love Scripture phraseology; and teaches us that we should do the work of the day in the day.I. We may apply this to life in general. “To-day if ye will hear His voice harden not your heart.” “Behold... read more
