Ezra 3:2
Then stood up Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and his brethren the priests, and Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and his brethren, and builded the altar of the God of Israel, to offer burnt offerings thereon, as it is written in the law of Moses the man of God.
Then stood up Jeshua the son of Jozadak,.... Who was the high priest, and the proper person to give the lead in the following work:
and his brethren the priests; the common priests, very fit to join him, and assist him in it:
and Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel; the prince and governor of Judah, whose presence was necessary to give countenance to the work, and animate to it:
and his brethren; the princes and heads of the people, particularly those mentioned Ezra 2:2
and builded the altar of the God of Israel; the altar of burnt offering, gave orders for the building of it, and directions about it:
to offer burnt offerings thereon, as it is written in the law of Moses the man of God; or prophet of God, as the Syriac version; see Leviticus 1:1.
