Neemias 2:4 Meaning and Commentary

Nehemiah 2:4

Then the king said unto me, for what dost thou make request?
&c.] The king supposed that there was a meaning in those looks and words of his, that he had a favour to ask of him, and therefore encourages him to it; or the king of himself moved this, as being desirous of doing anything for him he would propose, to make him easy:

so I prayed to the God of heaven;
secretly, in an ejaculatory way, giving him thanks for thus disposing the king's heart towards him, and entreating he might be directed what to ask, and in a proper manner, and that he might succeed.

Neemias 2:4 In-Context

2 E o rei me disse: Por que está triste o teu rosto, visto que não estás doente? Não é isto senão tristeza de coração. Então temi sobremaneira.
3 e disse ao rei: Viva o rei para sempre! Como não há de estar triste o meu rosto, estando na cidade, o lugar dos sepulcros de meus pais, assolada, e tendo sido consumidas as suas portas pelo fogo?
4 Então o rei me perguntou: Que me pedes agora? Orei, pois, ao Deus do céu,
5 e disse ao rei: Se for do agrado do rei, e se teu servo tiver achado graça diante de ti, peço-te que me envies a Judá, � cidade dos sepulcros de meus pais, para que eu a reedifique.
6 Então o rei, estando a rainha assentada junto a ele, me disse: Quanto durará a tua viagem, e quando voltarás? E aprouve ao rei enviar-me, apontando-lhe eu certo prazo.
