Definitions for Ezra 7:27
Barnes's Ezra 7:27 Bible Commentary
An abrupt transition from the words of Artaxerxes to those of Ezra. Compare a similar abrupt change in Ezra 6:6. The language alters at the same time from Chaldee to Hebrew, continuing henceforth to be Hebrew until the close of the book.
Wesley's Ezra 7:27 Bible Commentary
7:27 Blessed, &c. - Ezra cannot proceed in his story, without inserting this thankful acknowledgment of God's goodness to him and the people.
