Text: Ezra 9:1-10:44 | Speaker: Levi Bakerink | Description: The final two chapters of Ezra contain a shocking story of covenant unfaithfulness and difficult decisions. Ezra finds out that many men in the community have broken God's law by marrying foreign, pagan wives. Ezra then weeps, pleads for God's forgiveness, and then leads the people through true and full repentance, including the process of sending away all the foreign wives. From this passage we see that true repentance requires action—it is a way of life.
