Rashi, on Neh 11:16

“And Sabathai and Jozabed, who were over all the outward business of the house of God, of the princes of the Levites,”

“over the outside work of the Temple, such as the buildings of the repair of the Temple (sic) and the wood of the arrangement, which they would bring from outside.”

Hebrew and Aramaic words are the commentator’s citations of the sacred text; the English translation that follows each is the translator’s.
