Commentary on Ezra 3:4
Theological / DevotionalFeast of tabernacles. The festival requirements of Lev. 23:33-42 were carefully observed. To live in tents or booths had a real and appropriate meaning this time. The feast was originally established as a memorial of the 40 years of desert wandering. Once more the people of God had been led back to their homeland from a foreign country, where they had been in exile; once more they were living in tents, until more permanent places of abode could be built.
Daily burnt offerings. These offerings are not those mentioned in vs. 3 and 5, but pertained to the Feast of Tabernacles. The regulations concerning them are found in Num. 29:12-40. All particulars there enjoined were now carefully observed, as may be concluded from the record here given of the celebration.
