What Does Ezra 1:10 Mean?

The count goes on. Added to the tally are thirty bowls of gold, another four hundred and ten silver bowls of a different kind, and a thousand vessels besides. The record is exact, each grouping set down according to its sort.

The sheer variety speaks of a worship once rich and full, now being gathered back piece by piece. What had been scattered by conquest is restored in order. God's gathering is never vague or approximate; He brings back His own down to the last bowl. So He deals with His people as well, knowing and keeping each one, leaving none behind in the reckoning of those He calls His own.
