LESSON TEXT-Esra L OOLDEN TEXT—The bord hath done great things for ua, whereof wo are glad. -Psalms LS:I Israel went into captivity because of j her sins. The time of her disciplinary j i process was about to end, ns its pur |K»se was now accomplished: namely, | the cure of Israel's Idolutry. Ever j | since the Babylonian captiyity the lle | brew people have been worshipers of j the one God. Monotheism bus stood forth as a vital cbaracteristic. The | mnln reason for the Jews' maintenance of racial identity In spite of their na ; tlonal dislocation and the breaking up of their social ties. Is the unity of their faith, around the one God. I. The Proclamation*of Cyrue (w. 1 14). | (1) The Tims of (▼. 1). The first I year of Cyrus; that is the first year after his conquest of Hahylon. (2) How It Wns Brought About (v. 1). The Lord stirred up bis spirit. The. I/ord often uses very unlikely agents In the accomplishment of his purposes. There Is nothing too hard for hlui. He enn readily use a heathen king to accomplish his purpose. He can find a way of approach to any heart. Likely Daniel was the agent used to bring the matter to the king's attention. Daniel was still the Influ ent lii 1 prime minister of llabylon. 1 From his study of the prophecies of Jeremiah (Jer. 25:12; Isa. 45:1; cotn pure,,Donlel l>:2), he knew that the time was near for the return of the ■ people to their own land, so he likely j j brought the mutter to the attention of 1 the king and (wrsuaded him to thus j favor his people. (3) Its Contents (vv. 2-4). (a) A confession of the true God (vv. 2. 3). J He acknowledges him to be the (3od t , of heaven, the Most High, the Supreme God. a Clod of goodness. He declared, ! "He has given me all the kingdoms of the earth," and that God had with au- Ihorlty laid upon him (he charge of building him a house at Jerusalem. (b) A Generous Permission to Israel (v. 3). All who desired to go up to' Jerusalem and build the house were permitted to go. He even com manded the blessing of the to be upon them. (c) A Positive Co-Operation (v. 4). None were obliged to go up, but a pos itive obligation was laid upon those who did not go up to render assistance to those who did. They were to aid In the 'jtilldlng of the llouse of God by giving money, beasts and goods. It was more than a free-will offering, an obligation in addition thereto. The ob ligation was even wider than the peo ple of Israel. The heather were asked to render aid. 11. Reeponse to ths Proclamation of Cyrua (vv. 5, 0). (1) Ry Israel (v. 5). Rtrange to say the decree of Cyrus was not met with great enthusiasm. Only it small num ber, chiefly from Judnh and Benjamin, return' I (v. 5). For most of them It meant giving up business Interests, foi they had settled down to the regulni callings of life. Besides the sacrl flee of business Interests it Involved great risks as to the future. The en tire company, Including servants, was about fifty thousand (2:04). Of this company we note the following divi sions; flrst, chiefs of the fathers of Judah and Benjamin, that is magis trates; second, prlestu and Invites, lenders In religion; third, skillful ar tificers, head workmen. (2) By Their Neighbors (v. 0). This response wns apparently more hearty than that of the Jews themselves. Their neighbors gave freely of gold, sil ver, bensts and goods. God had not only graciously disposed the heart of Cyrus toward his people, but they found peculiar favor from their neigh bors, so that their wants were abund antly supplied. 111. Restoration of the Bacred Ves sels (vv. 7-11). These vessels hod been carried away to Babylon many years before. Little did Nebuchadnezzar re that he would put Into safe keep ing the vessels which would be needed at thisjlme. They were carefully num bered and turned over to the proper officers. Except for their desecration In Belshazzar's feast, they were none the worst for having been carried away. These were brought up to Jerusalem from Babylon. Povsrty.
