modern Samaria » Inhabitants of » Opposed the jews after their return from captivity
When Sanballat heard that we were reconstructing the wall, he flew into a rage, became indignant, and mocked the Jews. He addressed his allies and the Samaritan officials, saying "What are these pathetic Jews doing? Are they intending to rebuild it by themselves? Do they intend to offer sacrifices? Will they finish in a single day? Can they make stones from this burned out rubble?" Tobiah the Ammonite stood to the side, commenting, "If a fox were to jump onto what they're building, it would collapse their stone wall!" read more.
"Listen, our God, because we are being mocked. Let their insults fall back on them, and let them be dragged away as captives into exile. Don't atone their iniquity, and don't let their sin be blotted out from before you, because they have demoralized the builders." So we rebuilt the wall, completing it halfway up, because the people were committed to working. But when Sanballat, Tobiah, the Arabs, the Ammonites, and the Ashdodites heard that the repair work on the Jerusalem wall was progressing and that its breaches were being repaired, they flew into a rage. So they all conspired together to invade and fight against Jerusalem, creating confusion there. But we prayed to our God. We also set up guards day and night because of them. Meanwhile, the people of Judah said, "The builders are tired and there's so much rubble that we can't reconstruct the wall!" Our enemies said, "Before they notice or see us, we'll penetrate their midst, kill them, and stop the work!" The Jews who lived near them kept coming to us, reporting at least ten times, "They'll attack us from every direction." So I stationed the people by families behind the wall in the lower exposed areas, equipping them with their swords, spears, and bows. Looking things over, I stood up and spoke to the officials, the military leaders, and the rest of the people: "Don't fear them. Remember the great and awe-inspiring Lord.
