Ezra Nehemiah

By: Chuck Missler

Narrated by: Chuck Missler

The books of Ezra and Nehemiah (and Esther) cover about 100 years, closing the Old Testament historical books. The books of Samuel, Kings, and Chronicles closed with the Southern Kingdom (Judah)'s going into captivity. The two post-exile books of Ezra and Nehemiah record the return from Babylon after its fall to the Persians under Cyrus, the rebuilding of the temple and Jerusalem, and the reestablishment of the national life of Israel.

This study contains eight hours of verse-by-verse teachings.

• Ezra 1-3 - Decree of Cyrus permits Jews to return to Jerusalem to rebuild the temple; the altar is set up and sacrifice restored; the foundations of the temple are laid.
• Ezra 4-7 - Nehemiahs unselfish example; the rebuilding is opposed; the temple is completed; Ezra is introduced.
• Ezra 8-10 - Ezra sends for the Levites and Nethinim; Ezra proclaims a fast for the Lord's protection; God's people fail to separate from surrounding nations; reconciliation to God through confession and separation.
• Nehemiah 1-2 - Nehemiah prays for Israel and makes his request of King Artaxerxes.
• Nehemiah 3-5 - The rebuilding begins. A defense against a conspiracy: poverty and famine.
• Nehemiah 6-8 - False rumors about Nehemiah; walls finished; a list of those who returned; the law is read.
• Nehemiah 9-11 - Ezra's prayer; the covenant signed; the repopulation of Jerusalem.
• Nehemiah 12-13 - Establishment of priests and Levites; dedication of the city walls; Nehemiahs reforms.

Awesome

Listening to Chuck Missler has changed my life. He has a very unique way of making you understand using scripture.

good book

this book is filled with information that I didn't know and made it an interesting listen

Exceptional Teaching Sticks to God's Word!

The author did an exceptional job teaching and applying the Biblical verses. He uses King James, which I find difficult to follow as we surreal a sufferer language now. but I followed with my NIV, and everything worked beautifully.

Outstanding

The one thing missing are the charts and visuals he refers to. Those need to be available

Awesomeness

Very informative and allowed me grow in faith. This information has been both rewording and fulfilling.
