Nehemiah 8:4
Douay-Rheims
And Esdras the scribe stood upon a step of wood, which he had made to speak upon, and there stood by him Mathathias, and Semeia, and Ania, and Uria, and Helcia, and Maasia, on his right hand: and on the left, Phadaia, Misael, and Melchia, and Hasum, and Hasbadana, Zacharia and Mosollam.
George Leo Haydock
Step. Hebrew, “wooden tower.” (Calmet) — Protestants, “pulpit,” (Haydock) made in the form of a cup,” (Calmet) like the cior, or tribune of Solomon, 2 Paralipomenon vi. 13. — Mosollam. We should imagine that this was not the person who had given his daughter in marriage to the son of Tobias, chap. vi. 18. (Haydock)
