And they did. 2 Hg 1.12;Zec 4.6-9.So Zerubbabelthe governor and Joshua the priest urged the people to start working on the temple again, and God’s prophets encouraged them.
3 Governor Tattenaiof Western Province and his assistant Shethar Bozenai got together with some of their officials. Then they went to Jerusalemand said to the people, "Who told you to rebuild this temple? 4 Give us the names of the workers!"
5 But God was looking after the Jewish leaders. So the governor and his group decided not to make the people stop working on the temple until they could report to Dariusand get his advice.
6 Governor Tattenai, Shethar Bozenai, and their advisors sent a report to Darius, 7 which said:
King Darius, we wish you the best! 8 We went to Judah, where the temple of the great God is being built with huge stones and wooden beams set in the walls. Everyone is working hard, and the building is going up quickly.
9 We asked those in charge to tell us who gave them permission to rebuild the temple. 10 We also asked for the names of their leaders, so that we could write them down for you.
11 They claimed to be servants of the God who rules heaven and earth. And they said they were rebuilding the temple that was built many years ago by one of Israel’s greatest kings.5.11 one of Israel’s greatest kings: Solomon (ruled from about 970 to 931 b.c.).
