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).
In the King James version
the book after the Book of Ezra is the Book of Nehemiah
After Ezra, the next book is Nehemiah.
