Commentary on Nehemiah 6:3

Theological / Devotional

I cannot come. Nehemiah replies cordially to the invitation of neighboring fellow governors, but his reply gives them no reason to hope that he will weaken. He does not even deign to disclose his suspicions, possibly his definite knowledge, of their evil plans.
