1 Esdras 7:2 In-Context

1 Then Tattenai the governor of Coelesyria and Phoenicia, and Shethar-boznai, with their companions, following the commandments of King Darius,

2 did very carefully oversee the holy works, assisting the elders of the Jews and governors of the temple.

3 And so the holy works prospered, when Haggai and Zechariah the prophets prophesied.

4 And they finished these things by the commandment of the Lord God of Israel, and with the consent of Cyrus, Darius, and Artaxerxes, kings of Persia.

5 And thus was the holy house finished on the three and twentieth day of the month of Adar, in the sixth year of Darius king of the Persians.
