Commentary on Ezra 7:28
Ezra's doxology continues: 'and hath extended mercy unto me before the king, and his counsellors, and before all the king's mighty princes.' The term chesed (mercy/steadfast love) is God's covenant faithfulness. Ezra experienced this concretely—'before the king' in personal audience, and 'before all the king's mighty princes' in governmental circles. The response combines divine confidence ('I was strengthened as the hand of the LORD my God was upon me') with responsible action ('gathered together out of Israel chief men to go up with me').
