Excerpt from Ezra, Nehemiah and Esther: Introduction Revised Version With Notes Maps and IndexThough it is the prevailing opinion among modern scholars, especially since the time of Zunz 1, that originally chronicles-ezra-nehemiah formed but one continuous book, compiled, and in part composed, by One man, named the Chronicler, or by more than one belonging to the same school, there is not an atom of evidence in ancient Codices, Versions, or Editions, that these three books were counted as one, though there is ample evidence that ezra-nehemiah was reckoned as one. See further under Sources, ' &c., , pp. 12 E. The duplication of Ezra i. I - 3a at the'close of 2 Chronicles is due to a late editor who wished to explain when and how the seventy years of the preceding verse came to an end.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
