Matthew Henry · Verses 1–20
Ezra assembles the outcasts of Israel, and the dispersed of Judah. God raised up the spirits of a small remnant to accompany him. What a pity that good men should omit a good work, for want of being spoken to!
Ezra 8:5
Of the sons of Shecaniah, the son of Jahaziel; and with him three hundred males.
