Ezra 3:2-4

EasyEnglish Bible

² Jozadak's son, Jeshua, and some of the other priests in his family began to build the altar of Israel's God. Shealtiel's son, Zerubbabel, and some of his family also began to build it. They wanted to make burnt offerings on it. God's servant, Moses, had written about this in the law. ³ The people who already lived near there made them afraid. But they built the altar on its foundation. Then they made burnt offerings to the Lord on the altar. They offered sacrifices on it every day, in the morning and in the evening. ⁴ Then they had the Feast of Huts, as the law said they should do.^[a] On each day of the feast they made the right number of burnt offerings.
