 Okay, it's not a hotel or anything like that, like the one in D.C. But the people gathered together in that open space where the water gate is, and they told Ezra, the scribe, to bring the book of the law of Moses that the Lord had commanded Israel. Now, I find it interesting that instead of Ezra telling them what to do, they told Ezra what to do. Pretty interesting. The people that had come back from the exile, they'd been away for 70 years living in a foreign land.
