AB - The purpose of this paper is to deal with three difficult subjects and their solutions for the study of the Ezra-Nehemiah. Firstly, the texts of Ezra-Nehemiah regarded mixed marriage as the object of reform in terms of community purification, but this gentile was not hebrew ‘ger’, but ‘nokri’(or ‘nekar’). In other words, ‘ger’ participated in the Passover celebration(Ez 6:21), and he was authorized to seal the covenant(Neh 10:28). Secondly, it was an interpretation of the incident that Zerubbabel disappeared during the temple construction. After Ez 5:2 the leaders of temple building were replaced by elders of Judah no more Zerubbabel, and he no longer existed in the golah community. The reason was that the messianic and Davidic dynasty restoring expectations that have occurred within the golah community have stimulated the Persian Empire. Therefore he was most likely summoned from the royal court or assassinated. Thirdly, it was debate about the period of appointment for governorship of Nehemiah. His original mission was to rebuild the broken walls of Jerusalem(Neh 2:5), and after his mission he nust return to Persia. But he was governor of Judah from the twentieth year that Artaxerxes was king until the thirty-second year(Neh 5:14). Therefore, he was appointed as a governor of Judah after completing the temple construction, later Judah became independent from Samaria district. This can guess from the fact that the enemies of Nehemiah no longer appear in the texts of Nehemiah.
