Esra 10:13

Det Norsk Bibelselskap

Men folket er tallrikt, og det er nu regntid, så vi ikke er i stand til å stå her ute, og dette er et arbeid som ikke kan utføres på en dag eller to; for det er mange av oss som har syndet i denne sak.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

But the people are many,.... Who have been guilty of this evil:

and it is a time of much rain, and we are not able to stand without: in the street, because of the rain:

neither is this a work of one day or two; to inquire into this affair, who they are that have taken strange wives, and to persuade or oblige them to put them away:

for we are many that have transgressed in this thing; in marrying strange wives.
