Ezra7:6
6 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 .
With the Kings consent and Commission.
i. e. A learned and expert Doctor: for in that sense the word Scribe is oft used as Ier. 8. 8. Mat. 7. 29. & 17. 10. & 23. 2, 13. Mark 12. 28. compare with Mat. 22. 35, 36.
i. e. By the Grace and Favour of God so disposing the heart of the King.
