  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

the ruler: Nehemiah 3:9, Nehemiah 3:14-18

he and his daughters: Exodus 35:25, Acts 21:8, Acts 21:9, Philippians 4:3

Reciprocal: Nehemiah 3:15 - the ruler Nehemiah 3:16 - the ruler

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.
