Crossway Books (Verlag)
978-1-4335-7349-1 (ISBN)
Packed with exciting Biblical history, the books of Ezra, Nehemiah, and Esther display God’s faithfulness through trials, the promise of restoration, and the beauty of revival.
This commentary provides deep insights to help pastors and teachers draw connections between Ezra and Nehemiah, both of whom display godly leadership and the power of prayer. Then readers will follow Esther to learn how God’s providence reigns, even in a pagan world, and see how each of these Old Testament books points to the promise of our Savior Jesus Christ.
Pastor and experienced Bible expositor Wallace P. Benn expertly discusses Ezra, Nehemiah, and Esther verse by verse, and provides insightful observations, illustrations, and applications.
