Ne 1:1-3.
简体中文
Originale inglese
Ne 1:1-3.
NEHEMIAH, UNDERSTANDING BY HANANI THE AFFLICTED STATE OF JERUSALEM, MOURNS, FASTS, AND PRAYS.
1. Nehemiah the son of Hachaliah--This eminently pious and patriotic Jew is to be carefully distinguished from two other persons of the same name--one of whom is mentioned as helping to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem
(Ne 3:16),
and the other is noticed in the list of those who accompanied Zerubbabel in the first detachment of returning exiles
(Ezr 2:2; Ne 7:7).
Though little is known of his genealogy, it is highly probable that he was a descendant of the tribe of Judah and the royal family of David.
in the month Chisleu--answering to the close of November and the larger part of December.
Shushan the palace--the capital of ancient Susiana, east of the Tigris, a province of Persia. From the time of Cyrus it was the favorite winter residence of the Persian kings.

2-3. 我的一个弟兄哈拿尼同着几个人从犹大来——哈拿尼被称为他的弟兄
（Ne 7:2）。
但犹太人以及东方其他民族使用这词较为宽泛，所以很可能不过指同一家族而已。按约瑟夫所记，尼希米在宫墙四周散步时，无意中听到几个人用希伯来语交谈。他得知他们刚从犹太地回来，便急切询问，他们便告诉他耶路撒冷尚未完工、荒凉不堪的光景，以及归回之被掳者毫无防御的处境。先前赐给所罗巴伯和以斯拉的谕旨只限于修缮圣殿和私人住宅，故城的城墙城门仍如被迦勒底人围攻时所留下的，任其成为一堆破败的废墟。

2, 3. Hanani, one of my brethren, came, he and certain men of Judah--Hanani is called his brother
(Ne 7:2).
But as that term was used loosely by Jews as well as other Orientals, it is probable that no more is meant than that he was of the same family. According to JOSEPHUS, Nehemiah, while walking around the palace walls, overheard some persons conversing in the Hebrew language. Having ascertained that they had lately returned from Judea, he was informed by them, in answer to his eager enquiries, of the unfinished and desolate condition of Jerusalem, as well as the defenseless state of the returned exiles. The commissions previously given to Zerubbabel and Ezra extending only to the repair of the temple and private dwellings, the walls and gates of the city had been allowed to remain a mass of shattered ruins, as they had been laid by the Chaldean siege.

Ne 1:4-11.
简体中文
Ne 1:4-11.
他的祈祷。
4. 我听见这话，就坐下……悲哀……禁食，祈祷——这番叙述深深触动了这位善人的爱国情怀，他唯有在恳切持久的祷告中得着安慰，求神赐恩给他似乎已暗中立定的志向——求王允准他前往耶路撒冷。
Originale inglese
Ne 1:4-11.
HIS PRAYER.
4. when I heard these words, that I sat down . . . and mourned . . . and fasted, and prayed--The recital deeply affected the patriotic feelings of this good man, and no comfort could he find but in earnest and protracted prayer, that God would favor the purpose, which he seems to have secretly formed, of asking the royal permission to go to Jerusalem.

11. 我是王的酒政——在古时东方朝廷中，这职官总是地位显要之人；因其职务性质机要、且常可亲近君王，他具有相当大的影响力。
Originale inglese
11. I was the king's cupbearer--This officer, in the ancient Oriental courts, was always a person of rank and importance; and, from the confidential nature of his duties and his frequent access to the royal presence, he possessed great influence.
Ne 1:1-3.
尼希米从哈拿尼得知耶路撒冷的苦况， 便悲哀、禁食、祈祷。
1. 哈迦利亚的儿子尼希米——这位极其敬虔、爱国的犹大人，必须与另外两位同名者仔细区分：一位见于协助重建耶路撒冷城墙的记载
（Ne 3:16），
另一位则列于随所罗巴伯首次归回的被掳者队伍之中
（Ezr 2:2； Ne 7:7）。
虽然关于他的家谱所知甚少，但他极可能是犹大支派、大卫王室的后裔。
