Gill's Notes on the Bible
And next unto him repaired Shallum, the son of Hallohesh,.... So called, as Ben Melech says, from his being an enchanter of serpents, or a wise prudent counsellor:
the ruler of the half part of Jerusalem; of the other half; see Nehemiah 3:9
he and his daughters; who were rich widows or heiresses, and employed men to build at their own expense; he seems to have had no sons.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Nehemiah 3:12. The son of Halohesh — Or, the son of the Enchanter: conjectured to be thus named from having the art to charm serpents.
The ruler of the half part — See on Nehemiah 3:9.
