Nehemías 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.

Nehemías 2:4 In-Context

2 y el rey me dijo: ¿Por qué está triste tu rostro? Tú no estás enfermo; eso no es más que tristeza de corazón. Entonces tuve mucho temor,
3 y dije al rey: Viva para siempre el rey. ¿Cómo no ha de estar triste mi rostro cuando la ciudad, lugar de los sepulcros de mis padres, está desolada y sus puertas han sido consumidas por el fuego?
4 El rey me dijo: ¿Qué es lo que pides? Entonces oré al Dios del cielo,
5 y respondí al rey: Si le place al rey, y si tu siervo ha hallado gracia delante de ti, envíame a Judá, a la ciudad de los sepulcros de mis padres, para que yo la reedifique.
6 Entonces el rey me dijo, estando la reina sentada junto a él: ¿Cuánto durará tu viaje, y cuándo volverás? Y le agradó al rey enviarme, y yo le di un plazo fijo.
