TSNTyndale Study Notes:

3:1-32 This summary of the people who rebuilt the walls of Jerusalem moves in a circle around the city, starting at the northeast corner and moving west, then south, east, and north.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

הֶחֱזִ֣יקוּ אֲחֵי⁠הֶ֔ם

repaired brothers,their

As in 3:1, brother could mean the biological brothers of the Levites mentioned in 3:17. However, more likely it means other Levites. Alternate translation: “some other Levites repaired more of the wall”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

בַּוַּ֖י בֶּן־חֵנָדָ֑ד שַׂ֕ר חֲצִ֖י פֶּ֥לֶךְ קְעִילָֽה

Binnui son_of Henadad chief half district Qəˊīlāh

Here Nehemiah does not say “at their hand” (next to them) or “strengthened” (repaired another section of the wall). Once again he is leaving out some of what a complete sentence would be expected to contain. you could fill in this information. Alternate translation: “Next to them, Binnui the son of Henadad, who ruled the other half of the district of Keilah, repaired more of the wall.”

Note 3 topic: translate-names

בַּוַּ֖י בֶּן־חֵנָדָ֑ד

Binnui son_of Henadad

Binnui is the name of a man, and Henadad is the name of his father.

Note 4 topic: translate-names

שַׂ֕ר חֲצִ֖י פֶּ֥לֶךְ קְעִילָֽה

chief half district Qəˊīlāh

This is the name of one of the districts into which the city and the surrounding area were divided.
