Nehemia 5:14
Konteks5:14 From the day that I was appointed 1 governor 2 in the land of Judah, that is, from the twentieth year until the thirty-second year of King Artaxerxes – twelve years in all – neither I nor my relatives 3 ate the food allotted to the governor. 4
Nehemia 6:7
Konteks6:7 You have also established prophets to announce 5 in Jerusalem 6 on your behalf, ‘We have a king in Judah!’ Now the king is going to hear about these rumors. So come on! Let’s talk about this.” 7
[5:14] 1 tc The BHS editors suggest reading צֻוֵּאתִי (tsuvve’ti, “and I was appointed”) rather than the reading of the MT, אֹתִי צִוָּה (tsivvah ’oti, “he appointed me”).
[5:14] 2 tc The translation reads with one medieval Hebrew
[5:14] 4 tn Heb “the food of the governor.” Cf. v. 18.
