We live in a time when many Jews and saints (Christians) are expecting the restoration of the Temple. This amazing event has happened before. That was in the time of Zerubbabel and Cyrus the Persian. It was between 539 and 516 BC. The Chronicler wrote a book to facilitate the restoration and in the book he included a completely lost perspective on prophecy. He reinstated the Psalmists to the level of prophets. By reading the Chronicler one may gain a much more complete picture of both the first and second temple period. This book begins to do that.
