Book description |
Set in the Persian Empire, one of the greatest kingdoms the world has ever known, the stories contained in the Books of Ezra and Nehemiah provide the most comprehensive scriptural account of the restored Judean community after the Babylonian Exile. The Book of Esther shows that the Jews of the diaspora were still counted as God's people and had a role to play in the future of the whole. | |
