Nehemías 12:29 Meaning and Commentary

Nehemiah 12:29

Also from the house of Gilgal
Which likewise was in a champaign country in the plains of Jericho, ( Deuteronomy 11:30 ) ( Joshua 5:9 Joshua 5:10 ) ,

and out of the fields of Geba;
which was a Levitical city in the tribe of Benjamin, ( Joshua 21:17 )

and Azmaveth;
the same with Bethazmaveth, ( Nehemiah 7:28 ) where it follows Anathoth and Netophah, as it does in ( Ezra 2:24 ) , and was very probably in the tribe of Benjamin:

for the singers had builded them villages round about Jerusalem;
that they might be near it, to do their duty when required; by which it appears that the said places were near Jerusalem.

Nehemías 12:29 In-Context

27 En la dedicación de la muralla de Jerusalén buscaron a los levitas de todos sus lugares para traerlos a Jerusalén, a fin de celebrar la dedicación con alegría, con himnos de acción de gracias y con cánticos, acompañados de címbalos, arpas y liras.
28 Y se reunieron los hijos de los cantores del distrito alrededor de Jerusalén, de las aldeas de los netofatitas,
29 de Bet-gilgal y de los campos de Geba y Azmavet, pues los cantores se habían edificado aldeas alrededor de Jerusalén.
30 Y los sacerdotes y los levitas se purificaron; también purificaron al pueblo, las puertas y la muralla.
31 Entonces hice subir a los jefes de Judá sobre la muralla, y formé dos grandes coros, el primero marchaba hacia la derecha, por encima de la muralla, hacia la puerta del Muladar.
