Through the entire return and rebuilding episode, the Exiles realize lessons about God’s sovereignty: that God is faithful to complete his work, that while he uses human agents, he is ultimately sovereign in accomplishing his purposes, that he often uses trials to accomplish his will in us, and that he often uses men’s bad purposes for his own, and our, good.
