This would also explain why Ezra does not refer to a prophet named Malachi, while he did refer to other prophets such as Haggai and Zechariah.

The Book of Zechariah introduces him as the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo. [2] The Book of Ezra names Zechariah as the son of Iddo, [3] but it is likely that Berechiah was Zechariah's father, and Iddo was his grandfather.
