Ezra 7:8-10

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁸ Ezra came to Jerusalem in the fifth month (it was during the king’s seventh year). ⁹ On the first day of the first month, he began the ascent from Babylon. On the first day of the fifth month he came to Jerusalem. The good hand of his God was resting upon him, ¹⁰ because Ezra had set his heart to seek the Law of the Lord and to obey it, and to teach the statutes and ordinances in Israel.
