Ezra was a priest and a descendant of Aaron, the brother of Moses. He was also called a scribe, which was a person who studied, wrote, and taught the scriptures a great deal. Ezra led the second major group of Jews back to Jerusalem sometime around 465-425 B.C. Some have called Ezra the "father" of modern Judaism because of his emphasis on studying the law (the scriptures). He led the Jews at a time when they began focusing more on becoming a church rather than a nation. Ezra apparently either wrote some of the book of Ezra or the original writer quoted directly from a record Ezra wrote because in the last four chapters Ezra spoke in the first person ("I said," "I sent them," and so on).
The book of Ezra in the Bible is traditionally attributed to the scribe and priest Ezra, who played a significant role in the restoration of the Jewish community in Jerusalem after their exile in Babylon.
