2 Chronicles 36 (성경통독): In this chapter, we learn about King Jehoahaz, King Jehoiakim, King Jehoiachin, King Zedekiah and King Cyrus. All except for King Cyrus were evil in the eyes of the Lord as they drifted away from Him and they wouldn’t listen; they poked fun at God’s messengers, despised the message itself, and in general treated the prophets like idiots. God became more and more angry until there was no turning back—God called in Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, who came and killed indiscriminately... After long periods of Babylonian captivity, God restored Israel again and allowed them to return to Judah. In the first year of Cyrus king of Persia—this fulfilled the message of God preached by Jeremiah—God moved Cyrus king of Persia to make an official announcement throughout his kingdom; he wrote it out as follows: “From Cyrus king of Persia a proclamation: God, the God of the heavens, has given me all the kingdoms of the earth. He has also assigned me to build him a Temple of worship at Jerusalem in Judah. All who belong to God’s people are urged to return—and may your God be with you! Move forward!”
