יְהוּדָה֙ וּבִנְיָמִ֔ן
Yehuda and,Benjamin
One possibility is that these were individual leaders named Judah and Benjamin. However, in the context of the book, this most likely means “people from the tribes of Judah and Benjamin.” Their counterparts in the other group would be the other “half of the people” mentioned in 12:38. And since 12:31 says that these were “great” or large processional groups, you could translate this as “large numbers of people from the tribes of Judah and Benjamin.”

and,Shemaiah and,Jeremiah
These are the names of two men.
12:27-43 The dedication of the new wall probably happened shortly after its completion (6:15-19). This account probably came from Nehemiah’s personal memoirs.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
