 The chief of the fathers who offered themselves for the work were of the two tribes, Judah and Benjamin. There were also Levites, but they did not count as a tribe, for Levi had “no part nor inheritance with his brethren: the Lord is his inheritance.” (See Deut. 10:8-9.)...It was only therefore to Judah and Benjamin that Christ, when born into this world, was afterward presented for acceptance. (Ezra 1 by E. Dennett)
 There were no preliminary meetings to arrange and to come to an agreement, but the union of heart and purpose was produced alone by the action of the Lord on the hearts of all alike. This distinguishes a divine from a human work, and is the sure proof of a real action of the Spirit of God. (Ezra 1 by E. Dennett)
