SCRIPTURE: EZRA 7
Sixty years separate Ezra 6 from Ezra 7. A fresh group of newly deported Jews arrives in Jerusalem, led by Ezra himself.
After spending time this past week exploring the person of Ezra, this week we look at him as an Old Testament, Christ-like figure. Obviously, Ezra was not Jesus, but he does display many characteristics that helped Israel prepare for the coming Messiah. We also see a better Ezra fulfilled in the person of Jesus Christ.
