Part I. Priestly or Levitical authorship? ; Ezra-Nehemiah as an independent single work -- Priestly or Levitical authorship? -- Part II. Literary context ; Levites in Old Testament texts since the exile -- Levites in Ezra-Nehemiah -- Part III. Historical context ; Two clues -- Levitical authorship.
The study of Ezra-Nehemiah has been revolutionized in recent years by a growing rejection of the long-established belief that it was composed as part of the Chronicler's work. That shift in scholarly paradigms has re-opened many questions of origin and purpose, and this thesis attempts to establish an answer to the most important of these: the question of authorship. Here, Kyungjin Min argues that Ezra-Nehemiah most likely originated in a Levitical group that received Persian backing during the late-fifth century BCE and that valued the ideologies of decentralization of power, unity and cooperation among social groups, and dissatisfaction with the religious status quo.
