Ezra mourns for the affinity of the people with strangers5. He prays unto God, with confession of sins (5-15) Ezra's prayer of confession and deprecation. (5) And at the evening sacrifice I arose up.--Until the afternoon Ezra had sat silent and in grief before the Temple, and in presence of the people. Then, amidst the solemnities of the sacrifice, he uttered the prayer which he had been meditating. (6) And said, O my God.--The confession begins with "O my God;" but Ezra is the representative of the people, and it proceeds "O our God" (Ezra 9:10), without once returning to the first person. (7) Since the days of our fathers have we been in a great trespass.--In these Common Prayers of Ezra, Nehemiah, and Daniel, the race of Israel is regarded as one, and national sins as one "great trespass." The repetition of "this day" at the beginning and at the end of the verse is to be observed: in the former place in reference to the sin; in the latter in reference to the punishment. (8) A little space.--The "little" here and at the close of the sentence are emphatic. All the present tokens of mercy are said at the conclusion of the prayer (Ezra 9:14) to be conditional in their continuance. The little space from the time of Cyrus was nearly two generations; but it was a moment only in relation to the past and the possible future. The idea is inverted in Isaiah 54:7 : "For a small moment have I forsaken thee." Nail in his holy place.--The Temple was itself the sure nail on which all their hopes hung. . . .

The time of sacrifice was the fittest time for prayer, especially for a prayer in which acknowledgment of sin was to form a large part. Sacrifice symbolized expiation; and Ezra probably felt that his supplication would be helped by the expiatory rite which was being performed at the time. He rent his garment and his mantle a second time, as a renewed indication of sorrow, and with the view of impressing the people who "were assembled unto him" (ver. 4) the more, and stirring them up to penitence.
