Throughout the Old Testament, we see God using pagan nations and armies as His hand of judgment on His people, but the remarkable story of Ezra and Nehemiah show how God worked through pagan kings to restore and bless His people.
These kings gave each of these men particular directives meant to restore and strengthen Jerusalem. These jobs in Jerusalem's restoration mirror two of the works God must do to complete the job of restoration in our lives as well.
