1 And when the seventh month was come and the sons of Israel were in the cities, the people gathered themselves together as one man in Jerusalem.
2 Then stood up Jeshua, the son of Jozadak, and his brethren the priests, and Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel, and his brethren, and they built the altar of the God of Israel, to offer burnt offerings upon it, as it is written in the law of Moses, the man of God.
3 And they set the altar upon its bases, for fear was upon them because of the peoples of those lands, and they offered burnt offerings upon it unto the Lord, even burnt offerings morning and evening.
4 They kept also the feast of the tabernacles, as it is written, and offered the daily burnt offerings by number, according to the ordinance, each thing in its day,
5 and in addition to this, the continual burnt offering and the new moons and all the sanctified feasts of the Lord and every spontaneous freewill offering unto the Lord.
