Ezra 7:8-10
New Living Translation
8 Ezra arrived in Jerusalem in August[a] of that year. 9 He had arranged to leave Babylon on April 8, the first day of the new year,[b] and he arrived at Jerusalem on August 4,[c] for the gracious hand of his God was on him. 10 This was because Ezra had determined to study and obey the Law of the Lord and to teach those decrees and regulations to the people of Israel.
