The Bible contains no other command to study the Bible, which is quite shocking. Although Luke was doing careful investigation in the preparation of the writing of his Gospel (Lk. 1:1-3), the Bible makes it crystal clear that the Spirit was also guiding him (2 Tim. 3:16).

About half the Bible translations say Ezra “studied” the Law (Ezra 7:10), but the other half say Ezra set his heart to “seek the Law of the Lord.” The Hebrew word used here is dârash (H1875). It shows up 160 times and is only translated “study” this one time. It is most generally translated to seek or to inquire, so I surely feel Ezra had an inquiring heart that was seeking after God, and thus he was doing more than simple mental rational study of the Law of God. He was seeking God for revelation and insight.

What the Bible does command, many times, is that you meditate on the Bible.
