 A coalition of those typically opposed to one another was formed to seek Artaxerxes’ intervention and to bring the work to a halt (Ezra 4:9-10). (Adversaries- Ezra 4:1-24 by N. Simon)
 The carnal mind is enmity against God, and there is therefore no difficulty, when God and His testimony are in question, in securing unity of aim and purpose among His enemies. Differ as they may among themselves, and even hating one another, they have but one mind when God appears on the scene. (The Book of Ezra: Restoration From Babylon: Ezra 4 by E. Dennett)
