Synopsis

Excerpt from The Book of Nehemiah: Critically and Theologically Expounded; Including the Homiletical Sections of Dr. Schultz

Ver. 6. After this address to Jehovah as the awe-inspiring and yet covenant-keeping God, he asks God to hear him as the representative of his nation. The phrase, let thine ear be atten tive, and thine eyes open, that thou may est: hear, is peculiar. It is derived from Solo mou's prayer (1 Kings viii. 29, and has re ference, doubtless, to the greater attention paid by the ear when the eyes are opened towards the source of the sound.

Now, day and night. - Lit. To-day, day and night. His prayer was oft repeated in the course of these days of separation and mourning at hours of the night, as well as at the usual hours of daily prayer. Which we have sinned. Nehemiah has a clear sense of his identification with his people in sin as in misery. Both I and my father's house have sinned - From this mention of his father's house we have a strong reason to believe that Nehemiah was of the royal house of Judah. It is hard to understand his Special mention of his father's house, unless it had been a conspicuous family in the nation. (see the Introduction.)
