OUTLINE Outline for Ezra
WRITER: Ezra
He is one character who has not received proper recognition. He was a descendant of Hilkiah (Ezra 7:1), the high priest who found a copy of the Law during the reign of Josiah (2 Chronicles 34:14). Ezra, as a priest, was unable to serve during the captivity, but he gave his time to a study of the Word of God — he was “a ready scribe in the law of Moses” (Ezra 7:6). Ezra was a great revivalist and reformer. The revival began with the reading of the Word of God by Ezra (Nehemiah 8). Also, he probably was the writer of 1 and 2 Chronicles and of Psalm 119, which exalts the Word of God. He organized the synagogue, founded the order of scribes, helped settle the canon of Scripture and arranged the Psalms.
Let us pay tribute to Ezra who was the first to begin a revival of Bible study. Is this not God’s program for revival?
THEME: The Word of the Lord. (There are eleven direct references — Ezr 1:1; 3:2; 6:14, 18; 7:6, 10, 14, 26; 9:4; 10:3, 5.)
The place of the Word of God in the total life of His people — religious, social, business, and political.
KEY PHRASE: “Trembled at the words of the God of Israel” (Ezra 9:4; also see Ezr 10:3).
