What contribution did Nehemiah and Ezra make to the reconstruction Jerusalem and the settling of the Jews?

From ChatGPT (OpenAI’s Chatbot). I have no idea if it’s accurate, but it might give you a place to start.

Nehemiah and Ezra were two important figures in the rebuilding of Jerusalem and the settling of the Jews after the Babylonian exile.

Nehemiah was a Jewish official who served as the governor of Judah, a province of the Persian Empire, in the 5th century BCE. He is best known for leading the rebuilding of the walls of Jerusalem, which had been destroyed by the Babylonians. Nehemiah also worked to reform the social and religious practices of the Jews in Jerusalem, and he is credited with establishing the system of regular readings from the Torah that is still practiced in synagogues today.

Ezra, also a 5th century BCE Jewish scholar and leader, was a contemporary of Nehemiah. He played a key role in the rebuilding of the temple in Jerusalem and the settlement of the Jews in the region. Ezra is also credited with leading a movement to standardize and codify Jewish religious practices, including the collection and compilation of the Hebrew Scriptures, also known as the Old Testament.

Both Nehemiah and Ezra were instrumental in the rebuilding of Jerusalem and the settlement of the Jews after the Babylonian exile, and their efforts helped to lay the foundations for the development of Judaism as a religion.

Ezra headed the rebuilding of the temple of Solomon, and he convinced Cyrus (I think) to return the stolen artifacts that were taken a century before.

Nehemiah began, and headed the rebuilding of the destroyed walls of Jerusalem, and recalling the Jews to assist, and repopulate.
