Ezra and Nechemia were born into a community of Jews that had been forcibly exiled from Judea and relocated to Babylon after the destruction of the First Temple.

They both returned to Judea with a mission: Nehemia came to rebuild the ruined city of Jerusalem, and Ezra...came to rebuild the Jewish soul.
