Thematic Bible: Proposed to assist in building

Now news came to the haters of Judah and Benjamin that the people who had come back were building a Temple to the Lord, the God of Israel; Then they came to Zerubbabel and to the heads of families, and said to them, Let us take part in the building with you; for we are servants of your God, even as you are; and we have been making offerings to him from the days of Esar-haddon, king of Assyria, who put us here.
