Ezra 7:12-13

7:12 “Artaxerxes, king of kings, to Ezra the priest, a scribe of the perfect law of the God of heaven: 7:13 I have now issued a decree that anyone in my kingdom from the people of Israel – even the priests and Levites – who wishes to do so may go up with you to Jerusalem.


sn Ezra 7:12-26 is written in Aramaic rather than Hebrew.

tn Heb “from me is placed a decree.” So also in v. 21.
