Nehemiah 7:69-71

Context
7:69 (7:68) 1  435 camels, and 6,720 donkeys. 7:70 Some of the family leaders 2  contributed to the work. The governor contributed to the treasury 1,000 gold drachmas, 3  50 bowls, and 530 priestly garments. 7:71 Some of the family leaders gave to the project treasury 20,000 gold drachmas and 2,200 silver minas.

1 tc Most Hebrew MSS omit 7:68 ET, which reads “They had 736 horses, 245 mules,” and thus have one less verse in chap. 7, ending the chapter at 7:72. This verse is included in the LXX and most English versions. Cf. Ezra 2:66.

2 tn Heb “the heads of the fathers.”

3 tn Heb “darics” (also in vv. 71, 72).
