EZR 1:8  Cyrus king of Persia had them brought by Mithredath the treasurer, 
who counted them out to Sheshbazzar the prince of Judah.

EZR 1:9  This was the inventory: gold dishes 30 silver dishes 1,000 silver 
pans 29

EZR 1:10  gold bowls 30 matching silver bowls 410 other articles 1,000

EZR 1:11  In all, there were 5,400 articles of gold and of silver. 
Sheshbazzar brought all these along when the exiles came up from Babylon to 
Jerusalem.

EZR 2:1  Now these are the people of the province who came up from the 
captivity of the exiles, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had taken 
captive to Babylon (they returned to Jerusalem and Judah, each to his own 
town,

EZR 2:2  in company with Zerubbabel, Jeshua, Nehemiah, Seraiah, Reelaiah, 
Mordecai, Bilshan, Mispar, Bigvai, Rehum and Baanah): The list of the men 
of the people of Israel:

EZR 3:2  Then Jeshua son of Jozadak and his fellow priests and Zerubbabel 
son of Shealtiel and his associates began to build the altar of the God of 
Israel to sacrifice burnt offerings on it, in accordance with what is 
written in the Law of Moses the man of God.

EZR 3:3  Despite their fear of the peoples around them, they built the 
altar on its foundation and sacrificed burnt offerings on it to the LORD, 
both the morning and evening sacrifices.

EZR 3:4  Then in accordance with what is written, they celebrated the Feast 
of Tabernacles with the required number of burnt offerings prescribed for 
each day.

EZR 3:5  After that, they presented the regular burnt offerings, the New 
Moon sacrifices and the sacrifices for all the appointed sacred feasts of 
the LORD, as well as those brought as freewill offerings to the LORD.

EZR 3:6  On the first day of the seventh month they began to offer burnt 
offerings to the LORD, though the foundation of the LORD'S temple had not 
yet been laid.

EZR 3:7  Then they gave money to the masons and carpenters, and gave food 
and drink and oil to the people of Sidon and Tyre, so that they would bring 
cedar logs by sea from Lebanon to Joppa, as authorized by Cyrus king of 
Persia.

EZR 3:8  In the second month of the second year after their arrival at the 
house of God in Jerusalem, Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, Jeshua son of 
Jozadak and the rest of their brothers (the priests and the Levites and all 
who had returned from the captivity to Jerusalem) began the work, 
appointing Levites twenty years of age and older to supervise the building 
of the house of the LORD.

EZR 4:2  they came to Zerubbabel and to the heads of the families and said, 
"Let us help you build because, like you, we seek your God and have been 
sacrificing to him since the time of Esarhaddon king of Assyria, who 
brought us here."

EZR 4:3  But Zerubbabel, Jeshua and the rest of the heads of the families 
of Israel answered, "You have no part with us in building a temple to our 
God. We alone will build it for the LORD, the God of Israel, as King Cyrus, 
the king of Persia, commanded us."

EZR 5:2  Then Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel and Jeshua son of Jozadak set to 
work to rebuild the house of God in Jerusalem. And the prophets of God were 
with them, helping them.

NEH 12:1  These were the priests and Levites who returned with Zerubbabel 
son of Shealtiel and with Jeshua: Seraiah, Jeremiah, Ezra,

NEH 12:47  So in the days of Zerubbabel and of Nehemiah, all Israel 
contributed the daily portions for the singers and gatekeepers. They also 
set aside the portion for the other Levites, and the Levites set aside the 
portion for the descendants of Aaron.

HAG 1:12  Then Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, Joshua son of Jehozadak, the 
high priest, and the whole remnant of the people obeyed the voice of the 
LORD their God and the message of the prophet Haggai, because the LORD 
their God had sent him.  And the people feared the LORD.

HAG 1:13  Then Haggai, the LORD'S messenger, gave this message of the LORD 
to the people: "I am with you," declares the LORD.

HAG 1:14  So the LORD stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, 
governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high 
priest, and the spirit of the whole remnant of the people. They came and 
began to work on the house of the LORD Almighty, their God,

HAG 2:2  "Speak to Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, to 
Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to the remnant of the people. 
Ask them,

ZEC 4:6  So he said to me, "This is the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel: 
'Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,' says the LORD Almighty.

ZEC 4:7  "What are you, O mighty mountain? Before Zerubbabel you will 
become level ground. Then he will bring out the capstone to shouts of 'God 
bless it! God bless it!'"
