I dont understand the order of the kings of Persia - the building of the house of god started
1st year of Cyrus (chapter 1) then in Chapter 4 speaks of false accusations being sent to
Artaxerxes which seems to me as the 4th king after Darius and Ahasuerus. Then in Chapter 4 24 it says the work ceased 2nd year of reign of Darius which to me seems like the 2nd king.
The possible answers to your questions relate to other names that have been associated with these Persian kings or a lack of chronological listing of events in Ezra, etc. Rather than share what is on the Web, could I direct you to: apologeticspress. In their Search box, type in: Kingly Chronology in the Book of Ezra. There'll be ample information there for you to consider & formulate an understanding.
