Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
am 3548, bc 456
the first day: The cases brought before the council were either so many, or so complicated, that, though they separated themselves from other employments, yet they were three whole months in examining into their affairs, and making the necessary separations required by the law. Ezra 10:17
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And they made an end with all the men that had taken strange wives,.... Finished their inquiry and examination of them:
by the first day of the first month; the month Nisan, answering to part of March and April; so that they were three months about this work.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The business occupied the commission full two months. In some cases, it may be presumed, they had to summon persons before them who did not wish to part with their foreign wives; in all, they had to assure themselves that the wives were foreign; finally, they had in every case where they decreed a divorce to make out the “writing of divorcement†Ezra 10:3.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 17. The first day of the first month — So they were three whole months in examining into this affair, and making those separations which the law required.
