Just as Mack describes, it is possible to find a vague and very indirect reference to Jesus in either Ezra or Nehemiah. A discussion by Jim Lippard of this and other messianic prophecies is found in the attached link.

Is Peter in Isaiah's prophecy?
In spite of Christian tradition, the Book of Isaiah does not mention Jesus or any of his disciples. So, Peter is not in Isaiah's prophecy.
Was Zechariah the first to prophesy Jesus' death?
A:Some say that they can see in Zechariah 12:10-11 a possible prophecy of the death of Jesus. However, this would be a strange prophecy as it talks of the mourning for the god Hadadrimmon, considered to be a manifestation of Baal and scarcely a likeness of Jesus.A more objective and dispassionate reading of the Old Testament finds no mention of the death of Jesus. It is therefore a matter of faith and belief whether you see in Zechariah any prophecy of the death of Jesus, and also whether you see any earlier prophecy of Jesus' death.
Who allowed Jesus to return from exile and rebuild the temple in Jerusalem?
This did not happen. The Second Temple stood while Jesus was alive and remained standing for four decades after Jesus was killed by the Romans. The Third Temple has not been built.Jesus was never in exile, didn't return from one, and was never involved in any way in rebuilding the Temple in Jerusalem. Jesus came to earth approximately 536 years after the return of the Jews to rebuild the temple.An observation:Just in case the question meant to read "Jews" instead of "Jesus" (which would then completely make sense), the answer would be King Cyrus of Persia (Ezra 5:13). Zerrubabel led the Jews, along with Ezra and Nehemiah in the rebuilding of the Temple.
What do you think the books of Ezra and Nehemiah teach about restoration?
For me there is a duality in these two Books (considered as one book in the Masoretic tradition and in early Hebrew and Greek manuscripts) of Ezra/Nehemiah - a physical restoration as promised after 70 years of captivity in Babylon and a fuller, end-time restoration for both Israel and Judah (Isaiah 11, Jeremiah 23 and Ezekiel 36).Physical Restoration - Zerubbabel headed the first return, which was to rebuild the temple (Ezra 1-6; ca. 536-516). Ezra led a later group in 457. Nehemiah, Ezra's contemporary, returned to rebuild the shattered walls of Jerusalem in 444.Promised End-time Restoration by Christ: (one of many Scriptures pointing to this):Ezekiel 39:28-29New King James Version (NKJV)28 then they shall know that I am the Lord their God, who sent them into captivity among the nations, but also brought them back to their land, and left none of them captive any longer. 29 And I will not hide My face from them anymore; for I shall have poured out My Spirit on the house of Israel,' says the Lord God."

Does Ezra Lusk have any relation to Jeremy Lusk?
He was not related to Ezra. Ezra does have a brother but he was born in Blairsville, GA not California. Also I found an an article about Ezra returning to racing in Oct of 2009. He states that his brother was there with his family. Jeremy's death was in Feb. of 2009. Ezra only has one brother, so Jeremy is not related to Ezra. Rose in Tn
Are there any poems about the drug nicotine?

Is there any special reason why Jesus was born in Bethlehem not in other places?
In order to fulfull the OT prophecy Micah 5:2. Bethlehem is known as the "house of bread". Jesus fulfills the OT manna in the wilderness and also the tabernacle "shewbread" whereas He is the "bread of life".
Did jesus write any of the books in the bible?
No. Jesus Christ is the WORD of God [John 1:1].While He didn't pen the Words... it was He who inspired men to record God's message... the "Spiritual Bread of Life."(John 6:35). Jesus is the Bible.Revelation 19:10 tells us that "...this witness to Jesus inspires all prophecy..."(Phillips), so Jesus was the subject of many Bible books, but the writer of none.
How did Nehemiah assume responsibility for rebuilding the wall?
Nehemiah arrived from Persia to become the governor of Judah in 445 BCE. As governor, he was responsible for any civil constructions that took place. As the Persian king appears to have approved the construction of a new city wall around Jerusalem, Nehemiah undertook to complete the walls.
How much did the origins of prophecy in israel owe to prophecy from the sorrounding nations?
None. On the contrary, any imitating of the surrounding nations was a sure way for the Israelites to lose the privilege of prophecy.See also:Israelite prophecy
