SEV Biblia, Chapter 10:16
E hicieron así los hijos de la transmigración. Y fueron apartados Esdras y los varones cabezas de los padres en la casa de sus padres, y todos ellos por sus nombres; y se sentaron el primer día del mes décimo para inquirir sobre el negocio.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 16. And the children of the captivity did so , etc.] Put away their strange wives: and Ezra the priest, with certain chief of the fathers, after the house of their fathers, and all of them by their names, were separated ; from all their other business, and gave themselves up to attend to this wholly: and sat down in the first day of the tenth month ; the month Tebeth, which answers to part of December and January; this was ten days after the assembly of all the people met and broke up: these took their places in the great court, and there sat to examine the matter ; the accounts brought in from the several cities by the magistrates thereof, and recorded them.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 15-44 - The best reformers can but do their endeavour; when the Redeeme himself shall come to Zion, he shall effectually turn away ungodlines from Jacob. And when sin is repented of and forsaken, God will forgiv it; but the blood of Christ, our Sin-offering, is the only atonemen which takes away our guilt. No seeming repentance or amendment wil benefit those who reject Him, for self-dependence proves them stil unhumbled. All the names written in the book of life, are those of penitent sinners, not of self-righteous persons, who think they have n need of repentance __________________________________________________________________
