Nehemiah 7:1
繁體中文

Nehemiah 7:4
繁體中文
人民稀少——與所羅巴伯一同回歸的人數不過四萬二千三百六十名(Nehemiah 7:66)。與以斯拉同來的還不到二千人(Ezra 8:1-20)。

Nehemiah 7:5
繁體中文
有人主張,隨後的整份名單(Nehemiah 7:7-73)並非「初次上來」之人的名冊,而是尼希米時代猶太人的名冊。然而 Nehemiah 7:7 與 Ezra 2:2 都十分明確地支持通常的見解;而反對這見解的一部分論據,據認為可這樣化解:把 Nehemiah 7:7 與 Ezra 2:2 中的尼希米視為與省長尼希米不同的另一個人,並把「Tirshatha」視為一個除了尼希米之外也可能屬於其他人的官銜(見 Ezra 2:63 註)。
英文原文
It is argued by some that the entire catalogue which follows Nehemiah 7:7-73 is not the register of them "which came up 'at the first'," but of the Jewish people in Nehemiah's time. Nehemiah 7:7 and Ezra 2:2 are, however, very positive in their support of the usual view; and some of the arguments against it are thought to be met by considering the Nehemiah of Nehemiah 7:7 and Ezra 2:2 a person different from Nehemiah the governor; and "Tirshatha" an official title likely to have belonged to others besides Nehemiah (see the Ezra 2:63 note.)

英文原文
Compared with Ezra 2:69 there is considerable difference between the totals for gold, silver, and garments. The usual explanation is that of corruption in the one or the other of the passages.

Nehemiah 7:73
繁體中文
尚無翻譯。
英文原文
Dwelt in their cities - Nehemiah's quotation from Zerubbabel's register ends here, and the narration of events in Jerusalem in his own day is resumed from Nehemiah 7:3. The narrative Nehemiah 8; 10 appears from internal evidence to be by a different author (see the introduction of the Book of Nehemiah).
The last two clauses of Nehemiah 7:73 should stand as the beginning of Nehemiah 8 (as in the Septuagint). The text would then run: "And when the seventh month was come, and the children of Israel were in their cities, the whole people gathered themselves together as one man," etc. Compare the margin reference.
聖殿的看守直到今日是由守門的、歌唱的和利未人擔任的(1 Chronicles 26:1-19);照樣,如今全城的看守也交託給這同樣三類的人,因為他們的經驗表明他們正是最合適的人選。
