This is the story of the Samaritans' opposition to the Jewish people rebuilding the Temple in Jerusalem:
The Samaritans lie to the king about the Israelites
The king forces the Jews to stop working on the temple
Other accusations against God's people in Scripture. (It's the same over and over again. Satan is smart, but not creative.)

In this episode of the Bible Explained, we dive into the concept of blood and its significance in the Bible:
Animal sacrifices were a temporary solution for sins, but ultimately, a permanent solution was needed
Why is blood needed for forgiveness?
Jesus' sacrifice provides the permanent solution to salvation
Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. When we sin, we sever the ties to life.
Why won't Jesus just save people who don't believe in Him?
Jesus' sacrifice was a one-time event
