Introduction   1   2   3   4   5   6   7   8   9   10   11   12   13   Ezra   Esther
Nehemiah 7
Nehemiah appoints persons to keep the city, ver. 1-4. Reviews the people, ver. 5-7.

Verse 3.   Hot - 'Till it be clear and broad day; when the people will be ready in case of an assault. They - The watches appointed to that end. Watches - Nehemiah was now about to return to the court, and left the charge of the city to these in his absence.

Verse 5.   God put it into mine heart - Whatever good motion is in our minds, we must acknowledge it to come from God. What is done by human prudence is to be ascribed to the direction of Divine Providence.

Verse 7.   Tirshatha - Nehemiah. So it is no wonder that the number of the monies, and other things here contributed, differ from that Ezra ii, 68, 69, because this is another collection.
