Line 41:
In the book of Ezra, Johanan is mentioned (Ezra 10:6) during the reign of the king Artaxerxes (Ezra 7:1) following king Darius (6:1), who in turn is, similar to Darius II, preceded by another king Artaxerxes (Ezra 4:7).
 
In Ezra 4:8 the text changes from Hebrew to Aramaic, therefore the king's name Ahasuerus mentioned in Ezra 4:6 possibly is the Hebrew version of the king's name Artaḥšásta (Artaxerxes) of Ezra 4:7, which is also used in the following Aramaic letter, of Ezra 4:7.
