Guiding Questions: Nehemiah 4

This is part of the Tanakh Yomi Project.

  1. The work of rebuilding having proceeded, what plans did the enemies now project?
  2. According to Nehemiah 4:3, what was the response/protective measure undertaken?
  3. However, what final protective measures did Nehemiah call for (Nehemiah 4:7–8)?
  4. What three points are mentioned in the “exhortation” — Nehemiah 4:8?
  5. How did Nehemiah divide his forces to assure protection?
  6. Would it appear that these measures were successful — does the chapter give any “final indication”?
