Ezra arrives in Yerushalem

Ezra 7:1–10

7Many years later in the reign of Persian King Artahshasta (Artaxerxes), Ezra (son of Serayah, son of Azaryah, son of Hilkiyyah, 2son of Shallum, son of Tsadok, son of Ahitub, 3son of Amaryah, son of Azaryah, son of Merayot, 4son of Zerahiah, son of Uzzi, son of Bukki, 5son of Avishua, the son of Pinhas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aharon the head priest) 6was a skilled expert in the law that Yisrael’s God Yahweh had given through Mosheh (Moses). With the favour of his God Yahweh helping Ezra, the king had granted all his requests, and he travelled from Babylon to Yerushalem. 7Some Israelis, including some priests and Levites, singers and gatekeepers, and some temple servants travelled to Yerushalem in the seventh year of Artahshasta’s reign.8-9 8-9They left Babylon on New Year’s Day (in early April) and with God’s favour on the journey, arrived in Yerushalem exactly four months later 10because Ezra had made a firm resolution to study Yahweh’s written instructions, and to carefully follow them, and to teach them in Yisrael.
