Fourth Ezra ~ Hermeneia (1990 Stone), book
Fourth Ezra: A Commentary (1990) is a book by Michael E. Stone.
Abstract
Stone rejected the documentary hypothesis in the composition of 4 Ezra and strongly advocated the unity of the text.
4 Ezra is not a literary representation of a theological debate external to the author; it is rather a reflection of his own divided mind, of his own internal struggle. "The religious experiences described in 4 Ezra... were the actual experiences of the author" (p.33).
