Commentary on Ezra 10:13

Theological / Devotional

We are many that have transgressed. The marginal rendering of the KJV, followed also in the RSV, “we have greatly offended,” is a more exact rendering of the original text. Without doubt, however, the greatness of the offense consisted partly in the large number who had transgressed.
