1 Now when Sanballat heard that we were rebuilding the wall he became angry and was quite upset. He derided the Jews,

2 and in the presence of his colleagues and the army of Samaria he said, |What are these feeble Jews doing? Will they be left to themselves? Will they again offer sacrifice? Will they finish this in a day? Can they bring these burnt stones to life again from piles of dust?|
