7 So the men who were born to work for the Lord left for the temple to live to their calling, we as Christians all have a calling but we have to ask are we living to glorify God by our calling or are we doing something else?
8 So Ezra goes back to Jerusalem after many people go back and return, worship should have begun the temple should be being used and Ezra leaves expecting to find this once He arrives.
