Thematic Bible: Finished

The responsible men of the Jews went on with their building and progressed rapidly. The teaching of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah, the son of Iddo, helped them. They went on building till it was complete. They kept the word of the God of Israel, and the orders of Cyrus, and Darius, and Artaxerxes, king of Persia. The construction of this house was complete on the third day of the month Adar, in the sixth year of the rule of Darius the king.
