| Summary |
A short, oracular writing, 6 Ezra is included in the biblical Apocrypha as the final two chapters of 4 Ezra or 2 Esdras. Cast as the words of God mediated through an unnamed prophet, little has been written about it since the 19th century. This work offers an analysis of the text and its context |
