2 Esdras 14:42 In-Context

40 And I took it and drank; and when I had drunk it, my heart poured forth understanding, and wisdom increased in my breast, for my spirit retained its memory;
41 and my mouth was opened, and was no longer closed.
42 And the Most High gave understanding to the five men, and by turns they wrote what was dictated, in characters which they did not know. They sat forty days, and wrote during the daytime, and ate their bread at night.
43 As for me, I spoke in the daytime and was not silent at night.
44 So during the forty days ninety-four books were written.
