This monograph investigates the literary development of Ezra 7-10
and Neh 8. With a detailed literary critical analysis, the
investigation shows that the text was produced in several
successive editorial phases for at least two centuries. Thus the
final text cannot be used for historical purposes. The oldest text
emerged as a short narrative, entirely written in the third person.
It describes how a Torah scribe (Schriftgelehrter) called Ezra came
from Babylon to Jerusalem to reinstate the written Torah. In the
later editorial phases, Ezra's role was transformed from a scribe
to a priest who brought cultic vessels to the Temple. The editorial
development reveals that the text was originally influenced by
Deuteronomy and the (Deutero)nomistic theology. Later, it came
under priestly and Levitical influence.
