24 Então cessou a obra da casa de Deus, que estava em Jerusalém, ficando interrompida até o segundo ano do reinado de Dario, rei da Pérsia.

Esdras 4:24 Meaning and Commentary

Ezra 4:24

Then ceased the work of the house of God, which is at
Jerusalem
How far they had proceeded is not said, whether any further than laying the foundation of it; though probably, by this time, it might be carried to some little height; however, upon this it was discontinued:

so it ceased unto the second year of the reign of Darius king of
Persia;
not Darius Nothun, as some think, for from the first of Cyrus to the sixth of his reign, when the temple was finished, was upwards of one hundred years; yea, according to some, about one hundred and forty; which would carry the age of Zerubbabel, who both laid the foundation of the temple, and finished it, and the age of those who saw the first temple, to a length that is not probable; but this was Darius Hystaspis, who succeeded Cambyses the son of Cyrus, there being only, between, the short usurpation of Smerdis for seven months.

Esdras 4:24 In-Context

22 E guardai-vos de serdes remissos nisto; não suceda que o dano cresça em prejuízo dos reis.
23 Então, logo que a cópia da carta do rei Artaxerxes foi lida perante Reum e Sinsai, o escrivão, e seus companheiros, foram eles apressadamente a Jerusalém, aos judeus, e os impediram � força e com violência.
24 Então cessou a obra da casa de Deus, que estava em Jerusalém, ficando interrompida até o segundo ano do reinado de Dario, rei da Pérsia.
