Adversaries Hinder Work

The people of the land hired counselors to work against the Israelites from the reigns of Cyrus (539-530 b.c.) to Darius (522-486)
Accusations arose during the reign of Xerxes (Ahasuerus) (486-464)
Accusations arose during the reign of Artaxerxes (464-423):
 
• First threat: they will withhold money (v. 13)
 
• Second threat: the king is dishonored (v. 14)
 
• Third threat: they have rebelled before (v. 15)
 
• Fourth threat: they will take over the whole area (v. 16)
Work on the temple stopped from 536-520; Darius finally gives order to rebuild it
