This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Ezr_7:11 Now this [is] the copy of the letter that the king Artaxerxes gave unto Ezra the priest, the scribe, [even] a scribe of the words of the commandments of the LORD, and of his statutes to Israel.
Ver. 11. Even a scribe of the words of the commandments] This showeth Ezra was not an ordinary scribe (called a scribe of the people), nor a public notary, or king’s secretary, such as were called for, Est_3:13, but Scriba sacer, legis peritus, et interpres, a teacher of the words of the commandments of the Lord and his statutes to Israel. This is a high and honourable employment.
