A scholar-priest leads a second wave of returnees to Jerusalem and confronts a crisis that threatens everything they've rebuilt.
Ezra arrives in Jerusalem with royal backing, a deep knowledge of God's law, and a mandate to teach it. But he discovers that many of the returned exiles — including priests and leaders — have intermarried with the surrounding peoples, directly violating the covenant. Ezra is devastated. He tears his clothes, pulls out his hair, and leads the people through a painful process of repentance and covenant renewal.
