‏ Ezra 2:70

v. 70: The people settled in their own cities, even though the cities were in poor condition (Ezra 2:70 a). They were thankful for the land God gave them, even if they did not have wealth or power. Their poverty brought them together in unity and peace. There was enough room for everyone, and there was no fighting among them. This harmony was a good sign for their future, just as later divisions would lead to trouble.
