Bible Study: Jews Return

Remarkably God intervened on behalf of the Jews and had a world leader, a king who did not follow God put God's plans into action.

Remind your Bible Study students, Kids Club and Sunday School members about God's greatness.

As Jeremiah prophesied, it happened:
After a long time (70 years) King Cyrus the new king in Babylon sent all the Jews home.
God touched his heart to help them.
This is what Cyrus king of Persia says:

The Lord, the God of heaven, has given all the kingdoms of the earth to me.
And he has appointed me to build a Temple for him at Jerusalem in Judah.
Now all of you who are God’s people are free to go to Jerusalem.
May your God be with you. Ezra 1: 1-3

The picture illustrates the laying of the foundation stone for the temple rebuild.
