It is impossible to link any book of the Old Testament to any one writer. There are in fact two Books of Chronicles. It may be based partly on the Book of Samuel and the two Books of Kings. Ezra is thought to be the writer, but as said above this is unlikely.

Because the author is unknown and will probably remain so, he is commonly referred to by scholars as the Chronicler.

Answer:Jewish tradition is that Ezra wrote the book of Chronicles (Divrei Hayamim), and its last portion was completed by Nehemiah (Talmud, Bava Bathra 15a). Answer:The author is not stated and is usually referred to as the Chronicler. It is believed that I & II Chronicles were written by Ezra.

What are the books in the bible that Ezra wrote?

Israelite tradition holds that he wrote Ezra, Nehemiah and 1 & 2 Chronicles. None of these books state who the author is, so we can't be 100% sure. It seems likely that Ezra wrote Ezra and Nehemiah although equally likely that Nehemiah wrote them as well. They would have both had the same author, since they were originally one book in the Hebrew bible, so it's kind of 50/50. There is very little evidence, other than ancient Jewish testimony from the Talmud (written 100's of year later) that Ezra wrote Chronicles. Most scholars think that, at best, Ezra was one of many contributors to Chronicles, or that He wrote material that was incorporated into the book of Chronicles around 400 BC. Even the Hebrew Bible testifies to this on some level. Chronicles is the last book in the Hebrew bible, which did make an attempt to place the books, at least partially in chronological order. So: 0...the number that Ezra wrote for sure. 1...the number of books Ezra may have written in full (Ezra-Nehemiah was originally 1 book) 2...the number Ezra probably either wrote or contributed to. (Chronicles was also originally 1 book)

Who wrote Chronicles?

The Book of Chronicles was probably written shortly after the Return from the Babylonian Exile, by an anonymous author. It is clearly based on the Deuteronomic History (Joshua, Judges, 1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings and 2 Kings), with changes to remove some obvious inconsistencies and to suit the theology of the time. During the Christian Era, The Book of Chronicles was split into tow books, 1 Chronicles and 2 Chronicles, due to the difficulty of fitting the entire text onto a single roll of papyrus.The author of the Book of Chronicles was anonymous, so we therefore do not know who wrote 1 Chronicles or 2 Chronicles. The author is simply referred to as "the Chronicler".AnswerThe author is not stated and is usually referred to as the Chronicler. It is believed that Chronicles was written by Ezra.
