Description of Discussion Topic:
The two books cover the period from the fall of Babylon in 539 BCE to the second half of the 5th century BCE, and tells of the successive missions to Jerusalem of Zerubbabel, Ezra, and Nehemiah, and their efforts to restore the worship of the God of Israel and to create a purified Jewish community. The Masoretic tradition regarded the books of Ezra and Nehemiah as one book and referred to it as the Book of Ezra
