Ezra 2:1The Scriptures 2009And these are the sons of the province who came back from the captivity of the exiles, whom Neḇuḵaḏnetstsar the sovereign of Baḇel had exiled to Baḇel, and who returned to Yerushalayim and Yehuḏah, each to his own city, See the chapter |
So the sovereign’s scribes were called at that time, in the third new moon, which is the new moon of Siwan, on the twenty-third day. And it was written, according to all that Mordeḵai commanded to the Yehuḏim, and to the viceroys, and the governors, and the princes of the provinces from India to Kush, a hundred and twenty-seven provinces, to every province in its own writing, to every people in their own language, and to the Yehuḏim in their own writing, and in their own language.
