* And when the seventh month came , and the children of Israel were in the cities , the people gathered together as one man to Jerusalem . * Then stood up Jeshua the son of Jozadak , and his brethren the priests , and Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel , and his brethren , and built the altar of the God of Israel , to offer up burnt-offerings on it , as it is written in the law of Moses the man of God . * And they set the altar on its base ; for fear was upon them because of the people of the countries ; and they offered up burnt-offerings on it to Jehovah , the morning and evening burnt-offerings . * And they held the feast of tabernacles as it is written , and [offered ] daily burnt-offerings by number , according to the ordinance , as the duty of every day required ; * and afterwards the continual burnt-offering , and those of the new moons , and of all the set feasts of Jehovah that were consecrated , and of every one that willingly offered a voluntary offering to Jehovah . * From the first day of the seventh month they began to offer up burnt-offerings to Jehovah . But the foundation of the temple of Jehovah was not [yet ] laid .
