Ezra

Japanese: エズラ(英語表記)Ezra
Ezra
A Jewish legal scholar from the 5th to 4th centuries BCE. During the reign of Persian King Artaxerxes I (or II), he returned to Jerusalem from exile in Babylonia, rebuilt the temple (known as the Second Temple), and preached the Law to the people, thus establishing the foundations of legal Judaism. His activities are recorded in the Books of Nehemiah and Ezra.
