Gill's Notes on the Bible

Now it came to pass, when they had heard the law,.... Or the law concerning the Ammonite and the Moabite, and which included other nations also, and forbad marriage with them:

that they separated from Israel all the mixed multitude; all of these, and other nations, they had contracted affinity with.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

A separation like that made by Ezra, some 20 years previously Ezra 10:15-44, seems to be intended. The pagan wives were divorced and sent back, with their offspring, to their own countries.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Nehemiah 13:3. They separated from Israel all the mixed multitude. — They excluded all strange women, and all persons, young and old, who had been born of these illegal connections.
