Context — The People’s Confession of Sin
8Whoever failed to appear within three days would forfeit all his property, according to the counsel of the leaders and elders, and would himself be expelled from the assembly of the exiles.
9So within the three days, all the men of Judah and Benjamin assembled in Jerusalem, and on the twentieth day of the ninth month, all the people sat in the square at the house of God, trembling regarding this matter and because of the heavy rain.
10Then Ezra the priest stood up and said to them, “You have been unfaithful by marrying foreign women, adding to the guilt of Israel.
11Now, therefore, make a confession to the LORD, the God of your fathers, and do His will. Separate yourselves from the people of the land and from your foreign wives.” 12And the whole assembly responded in a loud voice: “Truly we must do as you say!Cross References

Ezra 10:10 Summary
In Ezra 10:10, Ezra confronts the Israelites about their sin of marrying foreign women, which was adding to the guilt of Israel. This verse teaches us that our actions have consequences, not just for ourselves, but for those around us, as seen in Leviticus 26:39. It also reminds us of the importance of separating ourselves from the world and pursuing a deeper relationship with God, as seen in 2 Corinthians 6:14-18. By repenting of our sins and turning to God, we can experience forgiveness and restoration, as promised in 1 John 1:9.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the main issue that Ezra is addressing in Ezra 10:10?
The main issue is the Israelites' unfaithfulness in marrying foreign women, which added to the guilt of Israel, as seen in Ezra 10:10, and is also warned against in Deuteronomy 7:3-4 and Nehemiah 13:23-27.
Why is it significant that Ezra is a priest in this context?
As a priest, Ezra is a spiritual leader and is responsible for guiding the people in their relationship with God, which is why he is able to confront them about their sin and call them to repentance, as seen in Ezra 10:10 and supported by Leviticus 10:10-11.
How does this verse relate to the concept of separation from the world?
This verse emphasizes the importance of separation from the world, as the Israelites are called to separate themselves from the people of the land and from their foreign wives, as seen in Ezra 10:11, which is a theme also found in 2 Corinthians 6:14-18.
What is the significance of the phrase 'adding to the guilt of Israel'?
The phrase 'adding to the guilt of Israel' suggests that the Israelites' actions have consequences not just for themselves, but for the entire nation, highlighting the importance of corporate responsibility and the need for collective repentance, as seen in Ezra 10:10 and also in Leviticus 26:39.
Reflection Questions
- What are some ways in which I may be 'marrying foreign women' in my own life, compromising my faith and adding to the guilt of the church?
- How can I, like Ezra, speak the truth in love and call others to repentance, as seen in Ephesians 4:15?
- What are some areas in my life where I need to separate myself from the world and pursue a deeper relationship with God, as seen in Romans 12:1-2?
- How can I balance the need for separation from the world with the command to love and engage with those around me, as seen in Matthew 22:37-40 and 1 Corinthians 5:9-10?
Gill's Exposition on Ezra 10:10
And Ezra the priest stood up,.... In the midst of the assembly to make his speech, acquainting them with the reason of their meeting together: and said unto them, ye have transgressed; the law of God
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Ezra 10:10
And Ezra the priest stood up, and said unto them, Ye have transgressed, and have taken strange wives, to increase the trespass of Israel. Ezra the priest stood up and said.
Trapp's Commentary on Ezra 10:10
Ezra 10:10 And Ezra the priest stood up, and said unto them, Ye have transgressed, and have taken strange wives, to increase the trespass of Israel.Ver. 10. We have transgressed] We have disloyally, or rather sacrilegiously, trespassed, by transgressing the covenant. Other men’ s sins are rebellious against God, but the saints’ sins are treacheries. Let the Philistines bind Samson, it wilt be nothing so grievous to him as that his brethren should do it. Men’ s offences are much increased by their obligations. To increase the trespass of Israel] To add to the heap which thereby is grown as high as heaven, Ezra 9:6, and calls hard for fire from thence, Psalms 11:6, to revenge the quarrel of the covenant. Draw water, therefore, before the Lord, as those did, 1 Samuel 7:6. Yea, pour out your hearts before him. God is a refuge for us, Psalms 62:7.
Ellicott's Commentary on Ezra 10:10
(7-17) Conference of the people and commission to try individual cases. (8) Forfeited.—This, as also what precedes and what follows, again recalls the express commission of Ezra 7. But “according to the counsel” removes all appearance of arbitrariness on the part of Ezra. (9) Within three days.—From the time of hearing the summons. No town was more than forty miles distant; and of course only those would come that were able, and who came within the scope of the proclamation, the precise terms of which are not given. They were not more than could assemble “in the street,” or open court of the Temple. The minute specifications of date, and the two reasons for the trembling of the people, and the whole strain of the narrative, bear witness to the veracity of an eye-witness. It was the ninth month.—Chisleu, our December, the rainy month in Palestine. (10) Ezra the priest.—He stood up, not as the commissioner of Artaxerxes, not at this moment as the scribe, but as the representative of God. (11) Do his pleasure.—This procedure, humanly severe, is connected with the Divine will.
From the people of the land, and from the strange wives.—The marriages were but a subordinate branch, though a very important one, of the wider sin: that of confederacy with idolators. (13) We are many.—Better, we have greatly offended in this thing. The greatness of the offence of course implied the number of the offenders. (14) Stand.—As a representative body in session. Until the fierce wrath of our God for this matter be turned from us.—A difficult verse, owing to a slight peculiarity in the original. The meaning seems to be: until the fierce wrath of our God—fierce while this matter lasts—be turned away from us.(15) Were employed about.—Rather, stood against. Nothing is said as to the reason for opposition on the part of these and the two who abetted them. But the reason is obvious enough. Some modern expositors are of their mind, and regard the act of Ezra as remedying one sin by another still greater. They bring Malachi (Ezra 2:15) to their support; but nothing in his prediction about “the wife of thy youth,” rightly understood, tends to condemn the conduct here described.
(16) By their names.—As in Ezra 8:20, the names were before the writer, but are not given. And sat down.—That is, held a session. This was ten days after the general assembly. (17) And they made an end.—Though the number of transgressors was only one hundred and thirteen, two months were occupied, which shows the care taken to do justice, especially to the claims of the women put away.
