seventh year of King Arta·xerxes. 468 BCE ie 7 years after Esther...

Artaxerxes Longimanus, the son of Xerxes I, is the king referred to at Ezra 7:1 and Nehemiah 2:1-18 ; 13:6. Whereas most reference works give his accession year as 465 B.C.E., there is sound reason for placing it in 475 B.C.E

"The king granted everything he requested, for the hand of Jehovah his God was upon him." - Ezra 7:6

Ezra’s return to Jerusalem with a large contribution for the support of the temple there. This occurred in Artaxerxes’ seventh year (468 B.C.E.).

<< Voluntary Contributions [INDEX] >>


"up to 100 talents of silver, 100 cor measures of wheat, 100 bath measures of wine,
100 bath measures of oil,+ and salt+ without limit." - Ezra 7:22

"In Bible times, stewards of dedicated funds followed procedures to make sure that donations were used only for their intended purposes. For example, Ezra traveled back to Jerusalem with donated items from the Persian king—gold, silver, and other materials worth well over $100 million (U.S.) in today’s values. Ezra considered these funds to be voluntary offerings to Jehovah and put detailed procedures in place to protect these treasures on the perilous journey through hostile territory. (Ezra 8:24-34)" - w18 1/15 p. 19 par 12

"with all the silver and the gold that you receive* in all the province* of Babylon, along with the gift that the people and the priests voluntarily give to the house of their God, which is in Jerusalem.+ 17 And you are to buy promptly with this money bulls,+ rams,+ lambs,+ along with their grain offerings+ and their drink offerings,+ and you are to present them on the altar of the house of your God in Jerusalem." - Ezra 7:16, 17
