This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Ezr_3:5 And afterward [offered] the continual burnt offering, both of the new moons, and of all the set feasts of the LORD that were consecrated, and of every one that willingly offered a freewill offering unto the LORD.
Ver. 5. And afterward offered] Finding a float of holy affections in their hearts, they passed from one good exercise to another, and were indefatigable in the Lord’s work. David, finding such a heat and height in his people, prays God to "keep it ever in the imagination of the thoughts of their hearts," which he knew well to be fickle and false, 1Ch_29:18.
Both of the new moons] Kept in thankfulness to God for their time renewed upon them, from month to month, and his mercies every morning and moment.
And of all the set feasts of the Lord that were consecrated] By a holy resting, both from corporal labour and from spiritual idleness.
A freewill offering] {See Trapp on "Ezr_1:4"}
