Tunc Darius rex præcepit : et recensuerunt in bibliotheca librorum, qui erant repositi in Babylone,
Factum est autem cum audisset Sanaballat et Thobias et Gosem Arabs et ceteri inimici nostri, quod aedificassem ego murum, et non esset in ipso residua interruptio usque ad tempus autem illud valvas non posueram in portis

when Sanballat: Nehemiah 2:10, Nehemiah 2:19, Nehemiah 4:1, Nehemiah 4:7
Geshem: Nehemiah 6:6, Gashmu
no breach: Nehemiah 4:6, Nehemiah 4:7, Daniel 9:25
at that time: Nehemiah 3:1, Nehemiah 3:3, Nehemiah 3:6
Reciprocal: Nehemiah 4:3 - Tobiah Nehemiah 6:16 - when all our enemies Nehemiah 7:1 - I had set up Psalms 41:6 - speaketh Psalms 147:13 - he hath Isaiah 58:12 - The repairer
Gill's Notes on the Bible
Now it came to pass, when Sanballat and Tobiah, and Geshem the Arabian, and the rest of our enemies, heard that I had builded the wall,.... Quite finished it:
and that there was no breach left therein; but all was made up firm and strong:
though at that time I had not set up the doors upon the gates; not upon all of them, though some might by the particular builders of them; and they all of them might be ready made, though not as yet put upon the hinges.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Upon the gates - Rather, âin the gates.â This work would naturally be delayed until the last phase.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
CHAPTER VI
Sanballat, Tobiah, and Geshem, insidiously desire a conference
with Nehemiah, which he refuses, 1-4.
They then charge him with the design of rebelling, and causing
himself to be made king, 5-7;
which he denies, and prays to God for support, 8, 9.
A false prophet is hired by Tobiah and Sanballat, to put him in
fear; he discovers the imposture, and defeats their design,
10-13.
He prays to God against them, 14.
The wall is finished in fifty-two days, 15.
He discovers a secret and treasonable correspondence between
Tobiah and some of the Jewish nobles, 16-19.
