Bible Basics session 6 - Into Exile: 1 and 2 Chronicles, Ezra, Nehemiah, and Ester

Although I find the books of Chronicles some of the most boring books of the Bible, Ester stands in sharp contrast to it. These books tell the story of the Israelites as they go into Exile and come out of it: the rebuilding of the Temple and the city walls. Then we have the incredibly important story of Queen Ester who saved the Jewish people.
