Esdras 10:1 Meaning and Commentary

Ezra 10:1

Now when Ezra had prayed, and when he had confessed, weeping,
&c.] Had confessed the sins of the people in prayer and supplication, with many tears:

and casting himself down before the house of God;
in the outward court before the temple, his face turned towards it, where he lay prostrate:

there assembled to him out of Israel a very great congregation of men,
and women, and children;
it was quickly spread abroad, both in Jerusalem and places adjacent, that such a great man, a commissioner from the king of Persia, and a priest of the Jews, was in the utmost distress, rending his garments, and plucking off his hair, and was crying and praying in a vehement manner; which brought a great concourse of people, who concluded some great sins were committed, and sore judgments were coming upon them:

for the people wept very sore;
being affected with his confessions, cries, and tears, and fearing wrath would come upon them for their sins.

Esdras 10:1 In-Context

1 Enquanto Esdras estava orando e confessando, chorando prostrado diante do templo de Deus, uma grande multidão de israelitas, homens, mulheres e crianças, reuniram-se em volta dele. Eles também choravam amargamente.
2 Então Secanias, filho de Jeiel, um dos descendentes de Elão, disse a Esdras: “Fomos infiéis ao nosso Deus quando nos casamos com mulheres estrangeiras procedentes dos povos vizinhos. Mas, apesar disso, ainda há esperança para Israel.
3 Façamos agora um acordo diante do nosso Deus e mandemos de volta todas essas mulheres e seus filhos, segundo o conselho do meu senhor e daqueles que tremem diante dos mandamentos de nosso Deus. Que isso seja feito em conformidade com a Lei.
4 Levante-se! Esta questão está em suas mãos, mas nós o apoiaremos. Tenha coragem e mãos à obra!”
5 Esdras levantou-se e fez os sacerdotes principais, os levitas e todo o Israel jurarem que fariam o que fora sugerido. E eles juraram.
