Best Answer

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).
