Methodist 1832 · Commentary on the Whole Bible, Nehemiah 4:7

Adam Clarke, on Neh 4:7

Adam Clarke · 1762–1832
Neh 4:7 · Douay-Rheims
“And it came to pass, when Sanaballat, and Tobias, and the Arabians, and the Ammonites, and the Azotians heard that the walls of Jerusalem were made up, and the breaches began to be closed, that they were exceedingly angry.”
On this verse:
“The walls of Jerusalem were made up - That is, they were made up to the half height of the wall; for the preceding verse seems to intimate that the whole wall was thus far built; not half of the wall completed, but the whole wall built to half its height.”
