66 Harnisch, “Der Prophet,” 478. 68 Most importantly, he disagrees with Harnisch that Ezra represents an opposing party, gnosticizing or otherwise, and that the author’s approach to the problems he raises is polemical. 69 While he agrees with Harnisch that Ezra is eventually converted to Uriel’s point of view, he recognizes that Ezra’s transformation does not actually take place within the confines of the dialogues with Uriel. 71 In contrast to Harnisch, Brandenburger makes a thorough case for the unity of 4 Ezra.
