느헤미야 11:24 KRV

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Nehemiah 11:1-36

THE INHABITANTS OF JERUSALEM AND OTHER CITIES (vv. 1-25) Jerusalem being God's center, the leaders of the people lived there, but the people evidently preferred other places, so that the proposal was made to cast lots as to who should live in Jerusalem. One out of ten were required to live there (v. 1). However, there were some who willingly offered to live there, and the people blessed these for their faith in doing so. There is a spiritual lesson in this. Do we want to live as near as we... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Nehemiah 11:1-36

INTERNAL REGULATIONS A NEW GENEALOGICAL RECORD (Nehemiah 7:0 ) The need for this assignment of duty to the two men named (Nehemiah 7:2 ), is not apparent unless Nehemiah contemplated a return to Persia. Later it will be seen that such return took place, but whether at this time or not, is not clear. To “fear God above many,” as Hananiah did, is a great commendation. It was customary to open the gates of a city at sunrise, but to do so in this case before the inhabitants were well awake and... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Nehemiah 11:1-36

Nehemiah 11:0 There is a close connection between this chapter and the opening portion of Nehemiah 7:0 . The thought of the writer, or compiler, goes back to what was said in chap. Neh 7:4 of the scant population of Jerusalem, and he proceeds to tell us how the deficiency was remedied. read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Nehemiah 11:20-36

(20) ¶ And the residue of Israel, of the priests, and the Levites, were in all the cities of Judah, everyone in his inheritance. (21) But the Nethinims dwelt in Ophel: and Ziha and Gispa were over the Nethinims. (22) The overseer also of the Levites at Jerusalem was Uzzi the son of Bani, the son of Hashabiah, the son of Mattaniah, the son of Micha. Of the sons of Asaph, the singers were over the business of the house of God. (23) For it was the king's commandment concerning them, that a certain... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Nehemiah 11:1-99

Nehemiah 11 THE TWO VERSES that open chapter 11 may perhaps surprise us. We might have thought that, Jerusalem now being a walled city, there would have been strong competition among the people for the privilege of dwelling in it, but evidently it was not so. On the contrary, the country towns of Judah were more attractive, and therefore lots were cast, and one in ten of the people, on whom the lot fell, had to dwell in the city and if any offered themselves willingly to dwell there, the... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Nehemiah 11:20-36

Distribution of Other Jews v. 20. And the residue of Israel, of the priests, and the Levites were in all the cities of Judah, every one in his inheritance, on the land occupied by his ancestors before the exile or in the city where they had lived. v. 21. But the Nethinim dwelt in Ophel, on the southern slope of the Temple mount; and Ziha and Gispa were over the Nethinim. v. 22. The overseer also of the Levites at Jerusalem was Ussi, the son of Bani, the son of Hashabiah, the son of... read more

Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures: Critical, Doctrinal and Homiletical - Nehemiah 11:1-36

Nehemiah 11:1-361And the rulers of the people dwelt at Jerusalem: the rest of the people also [and the rest of the people] cast lots, to bring one of ten to dwell in Jerusalem, the holy city, and nine parts to dwell in [the] other cities. 2And the people blessed all the men that willingly offered themselves to dwell at Jerusalem.3Now [And] these are the chief of the province that dwelt in Jerusalem: but in the cities of Judah dwelt [and which dwelt in the cities of Judah] every one in his... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Nehemiah 11:1-36

We now begin the third and final division of the Book, in which is set forth the arrangements made for settlement of the cities. It is the last piece of history which the Old Testament contains. Some revelation of later conditions is obtainable from the study of the prophets, but nothing more is directly written until, after a lapse of four centuries, the history is resumed in the New Testament. In this chapter begins the account of the settlement of Jerusalem particularly. Perhaps not more... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Nehemiah 11:1-36

The Establishment Of Jerusalem As The Holy City, Populated By True Israelites; Its Worship Conducted By Those Specifically and Provably Appointed By God; Accepted from God With Due Gladness And Praise; And Purified By the Removal Of All That Could Be Displeasing To God (Nehemiah 11:1 to Nehemiah 13:31 ). The Book closes with a description of the restoring of Jerusalem as the holy city. This was accomplished by: · Populating Jerusalem the holy city with members of the new true Israel who... read more
