Talk:Ezra Fitz/@comment-80.7.26.185-20140119185535/@comment-24374577-20140122172627

He is also mentioned as a writer:

"This Ezra went up from Babylon; and he was a ready scribe in the law of Moses, which the LORD God of Israel had given: and the king granted him all his request, according to the hand of the LORD his God upon him." Ezra 7:6

But would that be a positive reference?

"...the name Ezra means  Help, with the connotation of  Strong Vision. And that would suit this amazing visionary and reformer just fine."

I couldn't quite find the 'court' thing, but I'm sure you're right.. Anyways in the old Biblical/ Hebrew texts he seems to be depicted quite positve. Let's hope they do that here as well..

This was my 'short' Biblical lesson of today..! ;p
