These videos are 6 years old, but the truth was true then as it is today! As I read the Bible, I always watch the corresponding episode to give me a preview into the context of what I am about to read. Incredibly helpful to understand scripture on a factual and real level. Not just a fictional story, but a collection of historical documents and eyewitness accounts. THANK YOU!
I do the same. Such a wonderful commentary on each book. Thank you Dr Smith.
I woke up extremely early this morning with a sense of dread even b4 a thought occurred. I was feeling bad for actions in my life that caused destruction throughout the years and throughout relationships. I have a paralyzed cat who I named Ezra when I found him dragging around as a young kitten 9 months ago. All this time I've wondered why I chose that name for the little guy. All this time I've been meaning to study the book of Ezra. This morning is the right time. I am extremely grateful to know that I am being given a second chance. A lot of what is being taught in Dr. Smith's lesson here is actually taking place in my human experience now. Now, I will have a blessed day. Now is the only time we always ever have. Love to all. We are not suffering, we are being led. Like the kids say " It's all good."
Lord have mercy on us 2021 as we go through this Plandemic!
The wisdom contained in the Word of God is truly a gift to us all in its application to our lives. Our lives in the Lord are truly of those on a battlefield. Thank you for this teaching in the Book of Ezra.
Chap 9..hit with a problem
intermarriage. resolution breaking up families. Gods Word Ezra's understanding
Genesis Chapter 12 God's Promise to ABRAM verse 1-3...Verse 3 I will Bless those who Bless you.
And i will curse those that curses you

Relevant 2020 ~In church bodies & society ~Always LISTEN 2 GOD when HE tells YOU! Not status quo JUST MAKE 100% SURE 2 TEST the Spirits!
God bless you abundantly Sir,in Jesus mighty name 🙏.
Thank you, the book of Ezra was given to me at the end of my Prayer time this morning. I have been listening to a few teaching because I asked God for Understanding. Last night before bed, I shared a message its time for us to Prepare & if the Parents don't want to take heed at least begin to prepare your children. Because Technology is desensitizing them. This was truly great insight.

Amen. Glory to the almighty Lord God Jesus Christ. Repent and be forgiven of your sins against Jesus Christ Lord God and be forgiven. Pray for others to find Jesus Christ Lord God of all.
Brilliant!! I love the way you expound and give understanding of the book the detail of the events, God heart and then relaying to the modern day saints and the church! Perfect! Exactly what I've been looking for. Alot packed into one hour.

Thank you for teaching the Word of God so clearly. God has gifted you to expound the scripture in a way everyone can understand. Thank you. Found this so helpful .
God bless your work!!
Thank you for this info, all of this is teaching me and showing me myself in the word of God. Drawing closer and closer to God is the best 💯👍
These are incredibly well done, thank you. Trump fulfilled God's will for Israel much like Cyrus.
Very good teaching! Thank you!!
History of language
This guy is awesome. Pure wisdom.
😂 awesome! I love how you emphasized "again"... Glory to God for HE is patient and loving! HE could've put an end to all this so long ago but HE gives us chance after chance to correct. Thank God for Jesus and the Holy Spirit!! 🙏❤ now we just need to listen!
And interestingly Cyrus is part of Biblical prophecy Isaiah 44:27,28
That saith to the deep, Be dry, and I will dry up thy rivers:
28 That saith of Cyrus, He is my shepherd, and shall perform all my pleasure: even saying to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be built; and to the temple, Thy foundation shall be laid.
Thank you for the insight

Thanks a lot
Happy to help!
Good stuff and we'll done.
I learned new insights from all minor prophets you taught....MY REALLY BIG QUESTION IS #1God commanded the sabbath in exodus to celebrate from fri. Pm to sat. Pm.... should we not consider that at all... (I recently worked with a seventh day adventist... in their mid-20's... they looked forward to this... sorry...NEVER HEARD A CHRISTIAN SAY... "cant wait for sunday ...
Why ??? Obligation over participationm..... same goes for feasts of tabernacles...or "booths" several prophets sayiing celebrating😢😢😢😢🎉😢that feast would trigger the end time harvest..
All about obedience which is greater than sacrifice...
Any comments z?? Love to hear them
God gave me another 2nd chance
Blessed of course, but how do we know they were building too small, and earlier, they were building from the foundations inwards? Other external sources? Thanks!
Challenge for myself is how to do it and change my direction
Thank I was wanting to learn about ezra
Interesting explanation on God possibly turning down those who want to serve, but are not qualified to serve. How do I now reconcile this with God not calling the qualified, but qualifies the called? (i.e. Moses)
44:44 "Don't ever overlook the value of a good family." God chose the earthly parents of Jesus carefully.
Next question: Ezra 6:22 mentions the king of Assyria. Does that refer to Tattenai, mentioned in Ezra 6:13? Perhaps Assyria was a vassal kingdom of the Persian Empire by that time. One could get lost trying to piece things together. as empires rose and fell with some frequency.
(A) Excellent Thank You Watch again
(B) 1st time (10/5/19) : o
Reminder to watch again
Did you mean we have to meet God halfway in chapter one to have him bless us? Just curious.
What happen to the foreign wives and children that were exiled in Chapter 10 of Ezra?
Ezra 1-6: Zerubbabel & Sheshbazzar. Cyrus sends the first wave of Israelites back to the land.
Ezra 2: verifiable records of the Israeli people & professions.
3: attacks by enemy.
4: attacks of distractions, discouragement, & delays.
5: discouragement to Joshua the high priest (attack described in Zechariah).
Ezra 6: Passover & consecration.
OK, I have another question (if you happen to see this): In Chapter 10, Ezra separated the families because they were "never supposed to marry these people in the first place" -- can't that be used now for someone who gets married and THEN learns that they were not supposed to be married to this person in the first place? (Again, not being picky, I just wanted to know how to address it when it is brought up to me --it has been). Thank you!
He covers the matter more deeply in GCBI Leadership Lessons of Ezra Pts 1, 2 :)
I hope it answers your question!
Ezra 7-10: @44:00
I LOVE these lessons. You keep mentioning "God's People" (appx. 58:47 -- time stamp)...is this the Israelites, Jewish people or does it pertain to all Christians? I truly am learning so much from this series! Thank you!!
When God refers to His people in scripture, it’s always the Jews/Israelites (Jews & Israelites are the same:)
However, we as Christians can respond to the principle or lesson of what he’s telling his people to do. I hope this helps.
Actually, we see in Exodus 12 that all who kept the Laws of the Lord and were circumcised "whether alien or natural born" were treated as His people. So, it is debatable whether this was a "grafting in" of those who were not natural Israelites. If you believe that our God is constant does not change, it is reasonable to accept His people, were those who kept His laws. (Moreso when you look at Matthew 1 and the lineage of Jesus. Both Rahab and Ruth are mentioned, neither of whom is a natural born israelite)
I am no scholar by any means, but its something to delve into a little deeper as an important note of study.
It would be nice to have you read the scriptures then speak about it.
I like the way it's done so we read the scriptures ourselves
You expect him to unpack an entire book of the bible and read the scripture in 1 hour?
I like your idea, perhaps an optional (although time consuming) video could be edited with someone reading the passages? I like your request bc after all, I think Ezra himself read the Word of God, publicly (where they could gather).

Every impppo
Just trying
Peace out. Less than one minute in, he said "BCE". It's BC, not BCE and any man of God should know that.
I agree. As much as I respect him I just don't understand why he uses BCE.
