A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 23 is found in chapter 2 of Ezra. The list moves from large families to inhabitants identified by their former towns. The restoration of the land is thus connected with specific people who return to occupy places associated with Judah. The enumeration preserves the territorial memory of the people and shows that the return seeks to rebuild a community rooted once again in the land.
