Kata mereka kepadaku: "Orang-orang yang masih tinggal di daerah sana, yang terhindar dari penawanan, ada dalam kesukaran besar dan dalam keadaan tercela. Tembok Yerusalem telah terbongkar dan pintu-pintu gerbangnya telah terbakar."
Maka katanya kepadaku: Adapun segala orang yang lagi tinggal dari pada segala yang dipindahkan itu, ia itu adalah di sana, di dalam negeri itu, dengan sangat kesukarannya dan dalam hal kecelaan, dan lagi pagar tembok Yeruzalem sudah terbelah dan segala pintu gerbangnyapun sudah dibakar habis dengan api.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And they said unto me, the remnant that are left of the captivity there in the province,.... In Judea, now reduced to a province of the Persian empire:
are in great affliction and reproach; harassed and distressed, calumniated and vilified, by their enemies the Samaritans:
the wall of Jerusalem also is broken down, and the gates thereof are burnt with fire; that is, its wall and gates were in the same condition in which Nebuchadnezzar had left them, for since his times as yet they had never been set up; for this is not to be understood of what was lately done by their adversaries, which is not at all probable.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The attempt to rebuild the wall in the time of the Pseudo-Smerdis Ezra 4:12-24 had been stopped. It still remained in ruins. The Assyrian sculptures show that it was the usual practice to burn the gates.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Nehemiah 1:3. The wall of Jerusalem also is broken down — This must refer to the walls, which had been rebuilt after the people returned from their captivity: for it could not refer to the walls which were broken down and levelled with the dust by Nebuchadnezzar; for to hear of this could be no news to Nehemiah.
