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. Then stood up Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and his brothers the priests, and Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and his brethren, and they built the altar of God of Israel, to offer burnt offerings thereon, as it is written in the law of Moses the man of God. And they set the altar upon its bases; for fear was upon them because of the people of... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Ezra 3:1-13
Ezra 3:1 . The seventh month, and the tenth day was the great and holy day of atonement, as explained in Leviticus 16:0. 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. Ezra puts the highpriest first, for all ancient highpriests were princes; but Zechariah the prophet puts Zerubbabel first. Ezra was the uncle of Jeshua. REFLECTIONS. Zerubbabel, Joshua, Haggai, and others... read more

Ezra 3:1-13And when the seventh month was come.Rebuilding the templeI. They began by re-establishing the worship and service of the holy place. They set up an altar, and offered the daily sacrifice. A wise beginning. Their task was hard, and they did well to begin with God. They made the right use of fear. It stirred them up to religious duty.II. 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

Ezra 3:6-13From the first day of the seventh month began they to offer burnt-offerings unto the Lord.The full establishment of religious services precedes She building of the templeA weighty truth is enshrined in this apparently incongruous fact. The worship itself is felt to be more important than the house in which it is to be celebrated (John 4:21-24). How vain is it, then, to treat the erection of churches as though it were a revival of religion! As surely as the empty seashell can never... read more

Ezra 3:11-13And they sang together by course.Religious feeling prompts to praiseDuring the persecution in Madagascar, a number of native Christians would assemble at midnight in the house of the missionary for religious instruction. On one occasion they said, “Mr. Ellis, we must sing.” “No,” said he, “it is as much as your lives are worth to be heard.” They continued to talk about the love of Christ, and then exclaimed again, “Sing we must.” He cautioned them, and they added “We will sing in a... read more
