Ezra 4:24; Ezra 5:8; Ezra 6:7; Ezra 6:18

24 Then ceased the work of the house of God which is at Jerusalem. So it ceased unto the second year of the reign of Darius king of Persia.

8 Be it known unto the king, that we went into the province of Judea, to the house of the great God, which is builded with great stones, and timber is laid in the walls, and this work goeth fast on, and prospereth in their hands.

7 Let the work of this house of God alone; let the governor of the Jews and the elders of the Jews build this house of God in his place.

18 And they set the priests in their divisions, and the Levites in their courses, for the service of God, which is at Jerusalem; as it is written in the book of Moses.
