Endorsements
Careful attention to the text and perceptive pastoral application, all laced with disarming humour, is a rare combination in a commentator. But Dale Ralph Davis regularly employs such a combination to wonderful effect.

In characteristic fashion, Davis provides a studied and clear commentary filled with pastoral insight and even a humorous anecdote here and there. I strongly commend this volume for anyone who desires to understand Ezra–Nehemiah and hear a word of hope in the midst of hardship.
