Gill's Notes on the Bible

And there was a great cry of the people, and of their wives,.... Those of the poorer sort:

against their brethren the Jews; the rich that oppressed them; and this cry or complaint was made to Nehemiah for redress.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER V

The people complain that they are oppressed and enthralled by

their richer brethren, 1-3.

Nehemiah calls them to account; upbraids them for their cruelty;

and obliges them to swear that they will forgive the debts,

restore the mortgaged estates, and free their servants, 4-13.

Nehemiah's generosity and liberality, 14-17.

The daily provision for his table, 18, 19.
