The First and Second Books of Esdras

by Richard J. Coggins, M. A. Knibb, M. A. Knibb

Book Overview

The two books of the Apocrypha treated here have little in common apart from the attribution of their authorship to Ezra (Esdras in Greek), the 'second founder' of Judaism. The commentators resolve the confusion arising from different ways of referring to the various Ezra writings before examining each book separately.
