The author of the text may or may not have been an eponymous figure named Malachi. While often regarded as a proper name, the meaning of the word is simply "my messenger" in the Hebrew language,[2] and the Septuagint translation renders it as "his messenger." During the time the text was written, it was not used as a personal name.[citation needed] In tractate Megillah 15a of the Talmud,[3] Rabbi Joshua ben Karha and Rav Nachman—both Tannaim—taught that the book was authored by Ezra the Scribe, a prominent scholar and kohen who played a significant role in shaping Jewish religious law (Halakha) and tradition.[4]
