10thirty basons of gold, silver basons of a second sort four hundred and ten, and other vessels a thousand.

(Ezra 8:25‑30)
 Verses 11 and 12 stand by themselves and reveal another effect of this great work of God. Hitherto defilement had marked the people, whether personal or caused by lack of separation from defiling things. The double cry of “Depart”, indicates urgency. Neither Israel nor we who are Christians are to traffic in unholy things. Separation is essential, for as Titus 2:14 tells us, Christ “gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from all iniquity”. This we have to learn, and Israel too will learn it in the coming day. (Isaiah 52 by F.B. Hole)
