## Quotes about Artaxerxes I of Persia

And since we are in the desire to know all of them, let him take out, and show us his hands, and measure them to him, if by chance they were like those of King Artaxerxes, that is, of Ahasuerus, husband of Esther, surnamed Longimanus, because the one hand was longer than the other; and let it be understood because to some he gives scarcely and only when it is needful either the aids of grace, or the goods which we call of fortune to others so abundantly that they surpass and overflow. (Daniello Bartoli)

Ever since the beginning of the Babilonish Captivity, the diaspora has been Jewry's citadel and the Artaxerxes in question is Artaxerxes I (imperabat 465-424 B.C.E.) or Artaxerxes II (imperabat 404-359 B.C.E.) So we do not know whether the date of Ezra's mission was 458 B.C.E. or 397 B.C.E., or whether the date of Nehemia's mission was 445 B.C.E. or 384 B.C.E. (see G.F. Moore: Judaism in the First Centuries of the Christian Era, vol. i, p. 5). Nehemiah may have preceded Ezra
