Is the hand of God upon you? Study, Observe, Teach

Some weep and some rejoice

This post is about a very interesting Scripture, Ezra 3:11-13 about how the second Jewish temple foundation was laid and the people rejoiced and cried. Half the assembly, mostly the older ones, cried. Half the assembly rejoiced. The post relates that to our lives, how often we gather in mosques, churches, synagogues, and temples and some rejoice and some are terribly sad. The important point is we are together in seeking God.
