1. Imagine you were an exile returning to Jerusalem. What in I Chronicles would you have found inspiring about Israel’s history and God’s promises concerning David’s dynasty? About the need to remain faithful to God?
2. What themes did you notice in David’s prayer shortly before his death (I Chr 29) and Solomon’s prayer at the dedication of the temple (II Chr 6)?
3. As you read 2 Chronicles, what did you notice about the activities of the kings of Judah?
4. Describe Ezra and the challenges he faced when he returned to Jerusalem from Babylon. How did the people respond when Ezra helped them finally know God’s standards and recognize their own wrongdoing? Why was it so important for them to confess their sins and follow God’s law?
5. Why was ethnic purity so vital to the nations existence? (See Ezra 10 and Nehemiah 9)
6. Where did Nehemiah’s loyalties lie? In what ways did he demonstrate his reliance on God and deep commitment to prayer as he accomplished a great work in what the Persians considered to be a rebellious city?
