A verse-by-verse study of the Book of Ezra as it relates to Christian living today.

Ezra narrates the return of the Jewish exiles from Babylon to Jerusalem after the decree of King Cyrus of Persia. The book begins with the proclamation of Cyrus, who allows the Israelites to return and rebuild the Temple. Under the leadership of Zerubbabel, the first wave of exiles makes the journey back to Jerusalem, carrying with them the sacred vessels that had been taken by Nebuchadnezzar.Upon their return, the exiles face numerous challenges, including opposition from neighboring peop...

Confronting Urban Legacy fills a critical lacuna in urban scholarship. As almost all of the literature focuses on global cities and megacities, smaller, secondary cities, which actually hold the majority of the world’s population, are either critically misunderstood or unexamined in their entirety. This neglect not only biases scholars’ understanding of social and spatial dynamics toward very large global cities but also maintains a void in students’ learning. This book specifically explor...

Edited by David Platt, Daniel L. Akin, and Tony Merida, this new commentary series, projected to be 48 volumes, takes a Christ-centered approach to expositing each book of the Bible. Rather than a verse-by-verse approach, the authors have crafted chapters that explain and apply key passages in their assigned Bible books. Readers will learn to see Christ in all aspects of Scripture, and they will be encouraged by the devotional nature of each exposition. Exalting Jesus in Ezra-Nehemiah

The Israelites are returning to Jerusalem to rebuild the Temple. In many ways, this story resembles the life of a Christian who repents from sin and rebellion and turns around to find God welcoming them into His unfailing love. The Book of Ezra is a record of hope for those who are weighed down with discouragement. No sin is too big for God’s grace.

Joyce era allo stremo delle forze. Lasciata la patria Irlanda, aveva vissuto a Pola, Roma e Trieste, lavorando come insegnante di lingua e impiegato di banca.
