What do you think the books of Ezra and Nehemiah teach about restoration?

For me there is a duality in these two Books (considered as one book in the Masoretic tradition and in early Hebrew and Greek manuscripts) of Ezra/Nehemiah - a physical restoration as promised after 70 years of captivity in Babylon and a fuller, end-time restoration for both Israel and Judah (Isaiah 11, Jeremiah 23 and Ezekiel 36).
Physical Restoration - Zerubbabel headed the first return, which was to rebuild the temple (Ezra 1-6; ca. 536-516). Ezra led a later group in 457. Nehemiah, Ezra's contemporary, returned to rebuild the shattered walls of Jerusalem in 444.
Promised End-time Restoration by Christ: (one of many Scriptures pointing to this):
Ezekiel 39:28-29New King James Version (NKJV)
28 then they shall know that I am the Lord their God, who sent them into captivity among the nations, but also brought them back to their land, and left none of them captive any longer. 29 And I will not hide My face from them anymore; for I shall have poured out My Spirit on the house of Israel,' says the Lord God."

Why does the apostle Paul teach his own beliefs?
I think Paul does not teach his own beliefs. What he teaches in the letters written by him is consistent with other books of the New Testament. I think you have a misunderstanding here.
Who is the author of Ezra?
Many have held that the so-called "Chronicler" was the final author/editor of Ezra, Nehemiah and the books of Chronicles. These books draw on a number of different sources such as lists, genealogies, letters and memoirs. Parts of Ezra are personal memoirs or reminiscences of Ezra. Some would say that the Chronicler was Ezra himself, while others think he was a later follower of Ezra's circle or a later priest or Levite. Derek Kidner and H.G. M. Williamson hold that linguistic and other differences between the Chronicles and Ezra-Nehemiah indicate different compilers for those books. The degree of involvement, creativity, and quality of work of the Chronicler or compilers is debated.
