September 26, 2011 – Ezra 8:15 - 9:15

Here we see that fasting is something that they did as well.

Mixed marriages seem hard to avoid while they were in exile.

We see a priest tearing their cloak as a sign of complete exasperation or surrender. We see the priest doing it at Christ trial as well.

A very humble prayer. He calls the people of the lands abominable. That seems a bit unusual. Usually we see the act as something abominable, not the actual people.
