'Load' in the Bible

Those who were rebuilding the wall and those who carried burdens took their load with one hand doing the work and the other holding a weapon.

It came about that just as it grew dark at the gates of Jerusalem before the sabbath, I commanded that the doors should be shut and that they should not open them until after the sabbath. Then I stationed some of my servants at the gates so that no load would enter on the sabbath day.
