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.

fear which is impressed by the authority of a governor, it may
be derived from {tars,} "ear," or {tursh,} "acid, austere."

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.

miles south of Caesarea, 12; miles north of Ashdod, 9; miles
west of Ramla, and 40; miles west of Jerusalem, according to
modern authorities; and in lat. 32; degrees 50' long. 65

Salt is reckoned among the principal necessaries of life,

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.

经文：以斯拉记 6:2-6:2 注释:
* 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.

dominions. He ascended the Persian throne, A.M. 3540, B.C.
464, and reigned forty-one years. He is said to have been the

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

Seven princes of Persia having conspired against and slain the
usurper Smerdis, and thus made way for the family of Darius,
which afterwards filled the throne, the Persian kings of this
race had always seven chief princes as their counsellors, who
possessed peculiar privileges, were his chief assistants in
the government, and by whose advice all the public affairs of
the empire were transacted. The names of these counsellors
are given in the parallel place of the book of Esther.

Ahava is supposed to be the river Adiava, which, with the
Diava, is said by Ammianus to have given name to Adiabene, a
province of Assyria, through which they flowed into the
Tigris. These rivers were also called respectively, Anzabas
and Zabas, the Caprus and Lycus of Ptolemy; the former of
which he places, at its source, in long. 79; degrees, lat. 39罔 degrees, and at its junction with the Tigris, in long. 79罔 degrees, lat. 36; degrees 6'; and the latter, at its source, in
long 78; degrees, lat. 39; degrees; and where it falls into the
Tigris, in long. 79; degrees, lat. 36芟degrees. They are now
called the Great and Little Zab, or the Zabein, i.e., the two
Zabs, which, says Ibn Haukal, "are considerable streams, each
about half as large as the Dejleh (or Tigris). They rise
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."

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.

that in Judea, says, that the natives reckon the severity of
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

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.
