Exploring The Bible
52. Old Testament
Ezra
G'day and welcome to our series, "Exploring the Bible" This is also the title of our latest book available on Amazon by clicking here or visiting PulpTheology.com
Key Verses:
- Ezra 1:3
- Ezra 7:10
The Book of Ezra continues the history of the people of God by showing how God fulfils His promise to return His people to their land after the long gap of seventy years of exile.
Israel’s “second exodus”, this one from Babylon, is less impressive than the return from Egypt because only a remnant chooses to leave Babylon.

- Ecclesiastes 12:13-14
Written during the reign of Solomon, the Book of Ecclesiastes tells the story of life’s emptiness when trying to be happy apart from God. The preacher concludes that only life with God leads to true happiness.
There is an air of mischievousness about the book: it often seems to say the wrong thing. Presumably to make us think!

Isaiah - 740BC - 680 BC
G'day and welcome to our series, "Exploring the Bible" This is also the title of our latest book available on Amazon by clicking here or visiting PulpTheology.com
Key Verses:
- Isaiah 9:6–7
- Isaiah 53:4-6
The book of Isaiah, is perhaps the most outstanding of all the Old Testament, particulalry in looking ahead to the coming of the promised Messiah. It has been called the fifth Gospel. The first 39 chapters of the book tell of God’s judgement upon immoral and idolatrous men. They are however interlaced with positive messages of great grace and power. Isaiah preached to both Israel & Judah from 740 BC. - 680 BC.
Together with the surrounding nations and the whole earth, they have sinned against God. God’s judgement will come, because sin cannot go unpunished forever. The final 27 chapters foresee a different time when the people have returned from exile. They declare a message of hope - the Messiah is coming as a Saviour and a King to both die and bear a crown.

43. Old Testament
Jeremiah - 627-580 BC
G'day and welcome to our series, "Exploring the Bible" This is also the title of our latest book available on Amazon by clicking here or visiting PulpTheology.com
Key Verses:
- Jeremiah 7:23–24
- Jeremiah 31:31-33
The Book of Jeremiah is from the period 627 - 580 BC, the grim years before, during and after the exile. Jeremiah’s message is so sad he is called the weeping prophet. He prophesies mainly to Judah, before going out to the surrounding nations and Babylon.
Everyone despises him and rejects his message, but through his sermons and signs he faithfully declares that surrender to God’s will is the only way to escape God’s judgement. There are easily overlooked flashes of hope in his writings. God will make a new covenant with all people.

Lamentations - 627-580 BC
G'day and welcome to our series, "Exploring the Bible" This is also the title of our latest book available on Amazon by clicking here or visiting PulpTheology.com
Key Verses:
- Lamentations 2:5–6
- Lamentations 3:22–24
Lamentations tells the sad story of the funeral of the city of Jerusalem, and how the people have turned away from their God, so that now Jerusalem lies barren.
Yet in the midst of turmoil, God’s faithfulness is great. God has never failed the writer, so he expects that he will provide for him and all the people in the future. The author (probably Jeremiah) finds comfort and hope in the God that he knows, serves and loves.

Key Verses:
- Ezekiel 36:24–26
- Ezekiel 36:33-35
Ezekiel preached to the people of Judah in exile in Babylon. Ezekiel uses prophecy, parables, signs and symbols to show God’s message to His exiled people.
He prophesies that God will reassemble them and make them live again, which amounts to a prophecy of resurrection. The judgement of the days in which they live will lead to a future glory, when Israel will know that God is God.
