Neemia 6:16

Listen to Neemia 6:16
16 E quando tutti i nostri nemici l’ebber saputo, tutte le nazioni circonvicine furon prese da timore, e restarono grandemente avvilite ai loro propri occhi perché riconobbero che quest’opera s’era compiuta con l’aiuto del nostro Dio.

Neemia 6:16 Meaning and Commentary

Nehemiah 6:16

And it came to pass, that when all our enemies heard thereof,
&c.] That the wall was finished:

and all the Heathen that were about us saw these things;
the neighbouring nations, who not only heard with their ears, but saw with their eyes what was done:

they were much cast down in their own eyes;
through shame and confusion, because of their own scoffs and jeers; through grief and vexation at the unexpected success of the Jews, and through the fear of them that was fallen upon them, as Jarchi notes:

for they perceived that this work was wrought of our God;
his special providence and blessing attending it, as appeared by its being so soon effected.

Neemia 6:16 In-Context

14 O mio Dio, ricordati di Tobia, di Samballat, e di queste loro opere! Ricordati anche della profetessa Noadia e degli altri profeti che han cercato di spaventarmi!
15 Or le mura furon condotte a fine il venticinquesimo giorno di Elul, in cinquantadue giorni.
16 E quando tutti i nostri nemici l’ebber saputo, tutte le nazioni circonvicine furon prese da timore, e restarono grandemente avvilite ai loro propri occhi perché riconobbero che quest’opera s’era compiuta con l’aiuto del nostro Dio.
17 In que’ giorni, anche de’ notabili di Giuda mandavano frequenti lettere a Tobia, e ne ricevevano da Tobia,
18 giacché molti in Giuda gli eran legati per giuramento perch’egli era genero di Scecania figliuolo di Arah, e Johanan, suo figliuolo, avea sposata la figliuola di Meshullam, figliuolo di Berekia.
