Berean Standard Bible
“Whoever among you belongs to His people, may his God be with him, and may he go to Jerusalem in Judah and build the house of the LORD, the God of Israel; He is the God who is in Jerusalem.”
Ezra opens with the decree of Cyrus of Persia in 538 BC allowing the Jewish exiles to return to Jerusalem and rebuild the temple. This fulfilled Jeremiah's prophecy that the exile would last seventy years.
