Summary/Abstract: Ezra was an important person in post-Babylonian epoch. His work was of great im-portance in creation of Judaism – a special form of worship that appeared after Babylonian Exile. Being a priest and a scribe (teacher of the Law), Ezra’s primary reason for traveling to Jerusalem was to proclaim the Law. Ezra has also conducted various activities necessary to protect Jewish people from the influence of surrounding pagan nations: breaking up of mixed marriages and public repentance of the people. Due to these activities, Jewish community had created a strong basis for survival under the rule of many great empires.
