 This is a wood platform. So the preacher man is up on the wood platform. He's got the Bible open and people that are listening. And Ezra the scribe stood on that platform and he did what was said. And beside him stood a bunch of people. I'm going to skip the names for you. There were seven on one side and six on the other. Then if you look a little further, it says, and Ezra opened the book in the sight of all the people. He took it and opened it.
