Malachi or Malachias (; ) is the name used by the author of the Book of Malachi, the last book of the Nevi'im (Prophets) section of the Tanakh. It is possible that Malachi is not a proper name, because it means "messenger"; it has been assumed to be a pseudonym. According to Jewish tradition, Malachi's true identity is Ezra the scribe.
Malachi is the name associated with the author of the Book of Malachi, which stands as the final book in the Prophets section of the Hebrew Bible (Tanakh). The name may not be a real person's name at all, since "Malachi" means "messenger" and could be a pseudonym, with some Jewish tradition suggesting the author was actually Ezra the scribe.
