Nehemiah 4:6

6 itaque aedificavimus murum et coniunximus totum usque ad partem dimidiam et provocatum est cor populi ad operandum

Nehemiah 4:6 Meaning and Commentary

Nehemiah 4:6

So built we the wall
Went on in building it, notwithstanding their scoffs and threats:

and all the wall was joined together unto the half thereof;
it was carried all round the city to half the height of it:

for the people had a mind to work;
their heart was in it, they had a good will to it, and they made haste to finish it.

Nehemiah 4:6 In-Context

4 audi Deus noster quia facti sumus despectio converte obprobrium super caput eorum et da eos in despectionem in terra captivitatis

5 ne operias iniquitatem eorum et peccatum eorum coram facie tua non deleatur quia inriserunt aedificantes

6 itaque aedificavimus murum et coniunximus totum usque ad partem dimidiam et provocatum est cor populi ad operandum

7 factum est autem cum audisset Sanaballat et Tobias et Arabes et Ammanitae et Azotii quod obducta esset cicatrix muri Hierusalem et quod coepissent interrupta concludi irati sunt nimis

8 et congregati omnes pariter ut venirent et pugnarent contra Hierusalem et molirentur insidias
