Page "Ezekiel" Paragraph 20

According to Matthew Henry a Bible commentator who flourished in the 17th century, Ezekiel is also believed to have been known as Nazaratus Assyrius, a teacher to Pythagorus.

However, James Ussher, in his writings of the Ussher chronology, republished as " The Annals of the World " claims that this is a mistake, basing his opinion on the writings of Clemens Alexandrinus.

However, Sir William Smith, in his " Bible Dictionary ," points out that John Selden, among others, consider it a possibility.

In the book " Pythagoras: Greek philosopher " it states ; " Nazaratus, the Assyrian, one of Pythagoras ' masters, was supposed to be the prophet Ezekiel, and Thomas Stanley's Life of Pythagoras says that Ezekiel and Pythagoras flourished together.
