This Ezra [(Malachi)] went up [(to Eretz Yisrael)] from Bavel. And he was a swift scribe in the Torah of Moses given by the L-rd G-d of Israel. And the king [(Darius)] granted whatever he requested as he was charged by the L-rd his G-d.

Rashi
ויתן לו המלך. דריוש:
and the king granted him [i.e., King] Darius.
כיד ה' אלהיו עליו. כאשר צוה הקב"ה עליו ומקרא מסורס הוא ויתן לו המלך כל בקשתו כיד ה' אלהיו עליו ואמרו רז"ל עזרא הוא מלאכי:
according to the command of the Lord his God upon him as the Holy One, blessed be He, had commanded him. This verse is transposed [its meaning being]: and the King granted him his entire request, according to the command of the Lord upon him. And our Rabbis said (Meg. 15a) that Ezra and Malachi were one and the same.
ואחר הדברים האלה. של בנין הבית:
And after these incidents of the building of the House.
