Studies in the books of Ezra-Nehemiah have tended to become
bogged down with such questions as, Who came first, Ezra or
Nehemiah, and were they contemporaries? When did Ezra make his
journey to Jerusalem, how many trips did he make, and which route
did he take? In this commentary, the author undertakes a
theological reading which emphasizes its character as narrative and
story. He avoids rearranging the text and, with the exception of
chapter five of Nehemiah, he seeks to understand the narrative as
it was received. In general, Mark Throntveit avoids an overly
historical approach to the text and presents a clear picture of
Ezra and Nehemiah.
