Nehemiah 3
1. The names and order of those who built the wall














After him, Binnui son of Henadad repaired another section
Binnui, identified as the son of Henadad, is part of a family mentioned elsewhere in the context of rebuilding efforts (Nehemiah 10:9). The phrase "after him" indicates the sequential nature of the work, emphasizing the organized and communal effort in rebuilding Jerusalem's walls. This reflects the unity and cooperation among the Israelites, a theme prevalent throughout Nehemiah. The mention of "another section" suggests that Binnui was responsible for multiple parts of the wall, highlighting his dedication and the importance of shared responsibility in God's work.

from the house of Azariah
The house of Azariah likely refers to a specific location or landmark within Jerusalem. Azariah is a common name in the Old Testament, meaning "Yahweh has helped," which may symbolize divine assistance in the rebuilding process. This reference to a house indicates the personal investment of the inhabitants in the restoration of their city, as well as the integration of residential areas with the city's defenses.

to the angle and the corner
The "angle and the corner" describe specific architectural features of the wall. These terms suggest a point where the wall changes direction, which would be structurally significant and potentially more vulnerable, requiring careful attention during repairs. The precision in describing the work locations underscores the meticulous planning and execution of the rebuilding project. This attention to detail reflects the broader biblical theme of God's people being called to excellence and diligence in their endeavors.
