Nehemiah 2:12

Context
2:12 I got up during the night, along with a few men who were with me. But I did not tell anyone what my God was putting on my heart to do for Jerusalem. There were no animals with me, except for the one⁴ I was riding.

Nehemiah 2:18

Context
2:18 Then I related to them how the good hand of my God was on me and what⁵ the king had said to me. Then they replied, “Let’s begin rebuilding right away!”⁶ So they readied themselves⁷ for this good project.

¹tn Or “forest.” So HALOT 963 s.v. פַּרְדֵּס 2.

²tc One medieval Hebrew MS, the Syriac Peshitta, Vulgate, and the Arabic read here the plural וּלְחוֹמוֹת (ulÿkhomot, “walls”) against the singular וּלְחוֹמַת (ulÿkhomat) in the MT. The plural holem vav (וֹ) might have dropped out due to dittography or the plural form might have been written defectively.

³tn The Hebrew text does not include the expression “these requests,” but it is implied.

⁴tn Heb “the animal.”

⁵tn Heb “the words of the king which he had spoken to me.”

⁶tn Heb “Arise! Let us rebuild!”

⁷tn Heb “strengthened their hands.”
