Old Testament
Book of Jeremiah
Summarised in 1 Minute
Key Verses
Jeremiah 7:23-24 - but this thing I commanded them, saying, Listen to my voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be my people; and walk in all the way that I command you, that it may be well with you. But they didn't listen nor turn their ear, but walked in their own counsels and in the stubbornness of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward. Jeremiah 31:31 Behold, the days come, says Yahweh, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:Summary
The book of Jeremiah is from the period 627 - 580 BC, before, during and after the exile. Jeremiah prophesies mainly to Judah, then the surrounding nations and Babylon. Everyone despises him, but through his sermons and signs he faithfully declares that surrender to God's will is the only way to escape God's judgement. God will make a new covenant with all people.

Nehemiah 6:15 - 16 - So the wall was finished in the twenty-fifth day of Elul, in fifty-two days.

Nehemiah, who was the governor, and Ezra the priest the scribe, and the Levites who taught the people, said to all the people, "This day is holy to Yahweh your God. Don't mourn, nor weep." For all the people wept, when they heard the words of the law.Summary

Old Testament
Book of Ezra
Summarised in 1 Minute
Key Verses
Ezra 1:3 - So Solomon, and all the assembly with him, went to the high place that was at Gibeon; for there was the Tent of Meeting of God, which Moses the servant of Yahweh had made in the wilderness. Ezra 7:10 - On the three and twentieth day of the seventh month he sent the people away to their tents, joyful and glad of heart for the goodness that Yahweh had shown to David, and to Solomon, and to Israel his people.Summary
The book of Ezra continues on from 2 Chronicles by showing how God fulfils His promise to return His people to the land of promise after 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.
