Nehemiah 3:30-32

Meshullam repaired a second part of the wall (Nehemiah 3:4).

More of the skilled workmen who made things out of gold helped to build the wall. Some merchants also helped.

Nehemiah started his report at the Sheep Gate (Nehemiah 3:1). He divided the work between many people and each had their own part to repair. Nehemiah’s report goes all round the wall and back to the Sheep Gate.
