Matthew Poole and continuators on Ezra 7:26

26 And whosoever will not do the law of thy God, and the law of the king , let judgment be executed speedily upon him, whether it be unto death, or to banishment, or to confiscation of goods, or to imprisonment.

To wit, concerning these matters. Or, which Law of God is by this my sanction now become my Law also, to which I expect their punctual and ready obedience. For as for the Civil Laws of the Empire Ezra neither was skilful in them, nor was intrusted with the Execution of them, which was committed to other hands.
