Tyndale Old Testament Commentary: Ezra and Nehemiah, * Volume 12 homer hailey composition"The chequered story of the Kings, a matter of nearly five centuries, had ended disastrously in 587 B. C. with the sack of Jerusalem, the fall of the monarchy and the removal to Babylonia of all that made Judah politically viable. It was a death to make way for a rebirth." So begins Derek Kidner in this introduction and commentary to the books of Ezra and Nehemiah which chart the Jews' return from exile to Jerusalem and the beginnings of that rebirth.
