 * Cyrus.
   Cyrus is said to have been the son of Cambyses, king of
   Persia, and Mandane, daughter of Astyages, king of Media:  he
   was born about 600; years before Christ, and died at the age of
   70, after a reign of 30; years.  He was mentioned by name, and
   his conquests foretold, by the prophet Isaiah, about a century
   before his birth.  Josephus states the partiality he evinced
   towards the Jews, arose from the circumstance of these
   prophecies being shown him, probably by Daniel.

 * five thousand.
   Instead of 5,400, the enumeration of the articles in ver. 9,
   10, only amounts to 2,499; but in the account, Esdras 2:13,
   14, the amount is 5,469, as will be evident from the following
   statements:

              In Ezra.                     In Esdras.
      Gold chargers.....     30;     Gold cups.........  1,000

      Deficiency........  2,901;     Surplus...........     69

   The person who held this office at this time was probably
   Zerubbabel.  The word {Tirshatha} is supposed to be Persian;
   and if, as Castel supposes, it signifies austerity, or that
   fear which is impressed by the authority of a governor, it may
   be derived from {tars,} "ear," or {tursh,} "acid, austere."

 * forty.
   Though the sum total, both here and in Nehemiah, is equal,
   namely, 42,360, yet the particulars reckoned up only make
   29,818; in Ezra, and 31,089; in Nehemiah; and we find that
   Nehemiah mentions 1,765; persons who are not in Ezra, and Ezra
   has 494; not mentioned in Nehemiah.  This last circumstance,
   which seems to render all hope of reconciling them impossible,
   Mr. Alting thinks is the very point by which they can be
   reconciled; for, if we add Ezra's surplus to the sum in
   Nehemiah, and Nehemiah's surplus to the number in Ezra, they
   will both amount to 31,583; which subtracted from 42,360,
   leaves a deficiency of 10,777, which are not named because
   they did not belong to the tribes of Judah and Benjamin, or to
   the priests, but to the other Israelitish tribes.

   Bp. Patrick observes, that before the temple was built, there
   seems to have been a tabernacle pitched for Divine service, as
   was in David's time, not on mount Moriah, but mount Sion, to
   be used while the temple was building.  Let us learn hence to
   begin with God, and to do what we can in the worship of God,
   when we cannot do what we would.  They could not immediately
   have a temple, but they would not be without an altar.
   Wherever a Christian goes, if he carry not with him the
   sacrifices of prayer and praise, he is wanting in his duty;
   for he has an altar ever ready that sanctifies both the gift
   and the giver.

   Salt is reckoned among the principal necessaries of life,
   (Ecclus. 39:26; or 31;) hence, by a very natural figure, salt
   is used for food or maintenance in general.  I am well
   informed, says Mr. Parkhurst, that it is a common expression
   of the natives in the East Indies, "I eat such a one's salt,"
   meaning, I am fed by him.  Salt was also, as it still is,
   among eastern nations, a symbol of friendship and hospitality;
   and hence, to eat a man's salt, is to be bound to him by the
   ties of friendship.

註釋:

 * at Achmetha.  or, at Ecbatana, or, in a coffer.
   [achmta [,] probably from the Persian
   [chm,] {kham,} "a house for a summer residence," with a
   prefix, [a,] {aleph,} and the Chaldee termination [ta,]
   {tha,} most likely denotes Ecbatana, as the Vulgate and
   Josephus read, the summer residence of the Persian monarchs.
   It was situated in a mountainous region at the foot of mount
   Orontes, or Jasonius, according to Ammianus, on the southern
   confines of Media and Persia, and according to Pliny, 750
   miles from Seleucia the Great, 20; miles from the Caspian
   passes, 450; miles from Susa, and the same from Gaz(910a)   Atropatene, and in lat. 37; degrees 45; min., long. 88; degrees,
   according to Ptolemy.  The building of the city is ascribed to
   Semiramis by Diodorus, but to Deioces by Eusebius, (in Chron.
   1.1,) and Herodotus, who states that it was surrounded by
   seven walls, strong and ample, built in circles one within
   another, rising each above each by the height of their
   respective battlements; each being distinguished by a
   different colour, the first white, the second black, the third
   purple, the fourth blue, the fifth orange, the sixth plated
   with silver, and the seventh with gold.  The largest of these
   was nearly the extent of Athens, i.e., 200; furlongs, according
   to Dion Chrysostom; but Diodorus Siculus states the
   circumference of Ecbatana to be 250; furlongs.  Within the
   inner circle stood the king's palace and the royal treasury,
   so much celebrated for its splendour and riches by Polybius.
   It is highly probable, as D'Anville and Major Rennel suppose,
   that the present Hamadan, whose ruins attest its former
   splendour, occupies the site of Ecbatana.  It is situated in
   Al Gebal, at the foot of the lofty mountain Alwend, about 80
   leagues from Ispahan, and also from Bagdad.

   to the Greeks, from the extra-ordinary length of his hands,
   but according to the Easterners, from the extent of his
   dominions.  He ascended the Persian throne, A.M. 3540, B.C.
   464, and reigned forty-one years.  He is said to have been the
   most handsome person of his age, and to have been a prince of
   a very mild and generous disposition.

   which they had an eye in this establishment.  Though the
   temple service could not now be performed with so much pomp
   and plenty as formerly, because of their poverty, yet no doubt
   it was performed with as much purity and close adherence to
   the Divine institutions as ever.  No beauty is like the beauty
   of holiness.

   among the mountains of Azerbaijan:  of these, the larger is
   that which runs towards Haditheh.  These streams form part of
   the Tigris, and water the district of Semerah."

 * fine copper.  Heb. yellow, or shining brass.
   The Syriac renders, {nechosho korinthyo tovo,} "good
   Corinthian brass;" so called from the brass found after the
   burning of Corinth by Lucius Mummius, which was, as is
   generally supposed, brass, copper, silver, and gold, melted
   together.  Sir J. Chardin, however, in a MS. note, cited by
   Harmer, mentioned a factitious metal used in the East, and
   highly esteemed there, which might probably be of an origin as
   ancient as Ezra.  He says, "I have heard some Dutch gentlemen
   speak of a metal in the island of Sumatra, and among the
   Macassars, much more esteemed than gold, which royal
   personages alone are privileged to wear.  It is a mixture, if
   I remember right, of gold and steel, or copper and steel."  He
   afterwards added, "calmbac is the name of this metal, which is
   composed of gold and copper."

   Ezra and his company had now entered upon a journey of several
   hundred miles through the desert, which they were nearly four
   months in completing, encumbered with families and
   possessions, and carrying large treasures with them, which
   would invite the attempts of the Arabian hordes, and others,
   that infested that neighbourhood; yet, having declared to the
   king, "that the hand of God was upon all them for good that
   seek him, and that his power and wrath were against all them
   that forsook him," (ver. 22,) he determined to travel without
   a guard, except that of the Almighty, being ashamed to ask any
   other, after his former avowed confidence in Him!  Having,
   therefore, humbled themselves before the Lord, and besought
   his guidance and protection, he was intreated by them, their
   enemies were restrained or disabled, and they arrived
   unmolested at Jerusalem.

   the winter, which they call {marbania,} to last but forty
   days, beginning from the 12th of December, and ending the 20th
   of January, and that this computation comes in fact very near

   to the circumstances of her husband, and was not turned away
   desolate.  Humanity must have dictated this, and no law of God

   This observation was probably intended to shew that only a few
   of them had children, and also how rigorously the law was put
   in execution.  According to a passage in Justin Martyr's
   Dialogue with Trypho, a Jew, Ezra offered a paschal lamb on
   this occasion, and addressed the people thus:  "And Ezra said
   to the people, This pass-over is our Saviour and our Refuge;
   and if ye will be persuaded of it, and let it enter into your
   hearts, that we are to humble to Him in a sign, and afterwards
   shall believe in Him, this place shall not be destroyed for
   ever, saith the Lord of hosts; but, if ye will not believe in
   Him, nor hearken to his preaching, ye shall be a
   laughing-stock to the Gentiles."  This was probably a marginal
   note added by some early Christian.



             CONCLUDING REMARKS ON THE BOOK OF EZRA.

   This book details the events of a very interesting period of
   the Sacred History, when, according to the decree of
   Providence, the Jewish people were to be delivered from their
   captivity, at the expiration of seventy years, and restored to
   the land of their fathers.  This book informs us how the
   Divine goodness accomplished this most gracious design, and
   the movers and agents He employed on the occasion.  Ezra was
   undoubtedly the chief agent under God in effecting this
   arduous work; and his zeal, piety, knowledge, and discretion,
   appear here in a most conspicuous point of view, and claim our
   utmost admiration.  Descended from Seraiah, in a direct line
   from Aaron, he seems to have united all the requisites of a
   profound statesmen with the functions of the sacerdotal
   character.  He appears to have made the Sacred Scriptures,
   during the captivity, his peculiar study; and, perhaps
   assisted by Nehemiah and the great synagogue, he corrected the
   errors which had crept into the Sacred Writings, through the
   negligence or mistake of transcribers; he collected all the
   books of which the Sacred Scriptures then consisted, disposed
   them in their proper order, and settled the canon of
   Scriptures for his time; he occasionally added, under the
   dictation of the Holy Spirit, whatever appeared necessary for
   the purpose of illustrating, completing, or connecting them;
   he substituted the modern for the ancient names of some
   places, which had now become obsolete; and transcribed the
   whole of the Scriptures into the Chaldee character.  He is
   said to have lived to the age of 120; years, and, according to
   Josephus, was buried in Jerusalem; but the Jews believe he
   died in Persia, in a second journey to Artaxerxes, where his
   tomb is shown in the city of Zamusa.  Though not styled a
   prophet, he wrote under the Divine Spirit; and the canonical
   authority of his book has never been disputed.  It is written
   with all the spirit and fidelity that could be displayed by a
   writer of contemporary times; and those parts which chiefly
   consist of letters, decrees, etc., are written in Chaldee,
   because it seemed more suitable to the fidelity of a sacred
   historian to give these official documents, as they may be
   termed, in the original language, especially as the people,
   recently returned from the captivity, were familiar, and
   perhaps more conversant with the Chaldee, than with the
   Hebrew.
