The Second Book of Esdras is primarily an apocalypse (or series of visions
and revelations) that was written by an unknown Jewish author in Hebrew
or Aramaic. This was translated into Greek, and an introduction and appendix
of Christian origin were added. The original and the Greek translation
have disappeared, and the text is now preserved primarily in Latin. The
main part of the work reports seven revelations that were given to Shealtiel
(identified with Ezra) and answers questions about the problem of evil, suffering,
persecution, the end of the world, judgment, and the new world.
