I’m impressed by Benjamin’s ability to ask questions so difficult that even the Rabbi doesn’t know how to answer them.

{13} And on the second day the heads of the fathers’ houses of all the people, the priests, and the Levites gathered to Ezra the scribe, in order to study the words of the Torah. {14} And they found written in the Torah, which the Lord had commanded through Moses, that the children of Israel should dwell in booths during the festival in the seventh month. {15} And that they should announce and proclaim throughout all their cities and in Jerusalem, saying: Go out to the mountain and bring olive branches and branches of oil trees and myrtle branches and palm branches and branches of leafy trees, to make booths, as it is written. {16} So the people went out and brought them, and made themselves booths, each on his roof and in their courtyards and in the courtyards of the house of God, and in the square of the Water Gate and in the square of the Gate of Ephraim. {17} And all the congregation of those who had returned from the captivity made booths and dwelt in the booths, for since the days of Joshua son of Nun the children of Israel had not done so until that day. And there was very great rejoicing.

9 A trap seizes him by the heel; a snare lays hold of him.
10 His rope is hidden in the ground, and his trap on the path.
11 Terrors frighten him on every side and harry him at his feet.
12 His strength is famished, and calamity is ready at his side.
13 It consumes the limbs of his skin; the firstborn of death consumes his limbs.
14 He is torn from the security of his tent and marched off to the king of terrors.
15 In his tent dwells that which is none of his; brimstone is scattered over his habitation.
16 Beneath, his roots dry up, and above, his branch withers.
17 His memory perishes from the earth, and he has no name in the street.
18 He is driven from light into darkness and banished from the world.
19 He has neither offspring nor descendant among his people, nor any survivor where he sojourned.
20 Those of the west are appalled at his day, and those of the east are seized with horror.

How is that related?

What connection is there between verses describing Ezra’s activity (450 BCE) and King Saul (1050 BCE)?
