Jan 18-24 [MW] 5. Why were the Israelites who did not volunteer to return to Jerusalem not necessarily weak in faith? (Ezr 1:3-6 ) [ w06 1/15 17 ¶5; 19 par 1][/u]." " 1:3-6. Like some of the Israelites who remained in Babylon, many of Jehovah’s Witnesses cannot take up the full-time ministry or serve where the need is greater. Yet, they support and encourage those who can and make voluntary donations to further the Kingdom-preaching and disciple-making work." - [ w06 1/15 17 p. 19 par 1][/ul] Jan 18-24 [MW] 6. Why was an offer of help rejected? (Ezr 4:1-3) [/b]The faithful remnant rejected an offer that would have meant forming a religious alliance with false worshippers. (Exodus 20:5; 34:12) Jehovah’s worshippers today similarly take no part in any interfaith movements." - [w06 1/15 19 par. 3][/ul] Jan 25-31 [MW] 7. How serious a threat was intermarriage with “the peoples of the lands”? (Ezr 9:1, 2) [/u] Because some had formed marriage alliances with the idol-worshipping people, the entire nation might eventually be assimilated into the pagan nations. Pure worship could have vanished from the face of the earth. To whom, then, would the Messiah come? No wonder Ezra was stunned at seeing what had taken place!" - [w06 1/15 20 par. 1][/ul] Jan 25-31 [MW] 8. Why were the children sent away along with the wives? (Ezr 10:3) [/a][/ul]
