Ezra 6:14-16 And
the elders of the Jews builded, and they prospered through the prophesying of
Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo. And they builded, and
finished it, according to the commandment of the God of Israel, and according
to the commandment of Cyrus, and Darius, and Artaxerxes king of Persia. And
this house was finished on the third day of the month Adar, which was in the
sixth year of the reign of Darius the king. And the children of Israel, the
priests, and the Levites, and the rest of the children of the captivity, kept
the dedication of this house of God with joy, Six years into the reign of
King Darius, the Temple was finished! What a wonderful celebration they had!
All of the work over such a long time finally paid off. God had answered their
prayers.
