Commentary on Nehemiah 4:11

Theological / Devotional

They shall not know. Discouragement increased with word from their enemies that they planned to take the city by surprise and slay the workmen. Nehemiah’s vivid account of what the Jews and their enemies were saying (vs. 10, 11) reflects the forces with which he, as leader, had to contend. The least wavering on his part would have brought the work to a halt.
