    Summary: We return to 1 Kings and the time after the division of God's people into Israel (North) and Judah (South). from chapters 17-22, we have the extended narrative o the wicked reign of King Ahab in Israel, during which the Lord raised up the prophet Elijah. Introduction: Even saintly prophets of old who performed mighty miracles felt depressed, and disillusioned when the Lord didn't seem to be granted success. In this we see a shadow of the Messiah, who would identify with us and be a man of sorrow so that we might experience the outpouring of God's grace.

    Ezra's Reaction to Intermarriage

    Ezra is now back in Jerusalem. At the onset, he encounters the problem of intermarriage which moves him to tear his garment, pull his hair, and sit down in shock & disappointment at this lack of faith. At a deeper level, this shows a lack of faith in God, his promises, and his commandments. The bigger problem isn't getting married to other tribes; but getting married to people whose allegiance is to other gods, which will turn the hearts of God's people away. That's why Ezra is greatly disturbed moving him to confess this sin in prayer.
