Heard the exiles are building a temple, so we went to offer to help. We worship their God too, you know. Have done ever since Esarhaddon, king of Assyria, brought us here.

We worship your God too. We said.
My people were moved here by Esarhaddon, king of Assyria, long ago. We say we worship the God of Israel as well as others. Ezra’s book calls us the enemies of Judah and Benjamin, and after they turned down our help, we did our best to make them stop building.
