About 150 years later, the walls of Jerusalem were built again under Nehemiah: [5]. Then Eliashib the high priest rose up with his brethren the priests, and they builded the sheep gate; they sanctified it, and set up the doors of it; even unto the tower of Meah they sanctified it, unto the tower of Hananeel.

[11]The month was Tishrei.The feast of tabernacles began on the fourteenth day of the month, and ended on the twenty-second, "all which time mourning had been forbidden, as contrary to the nature of the feast, which was to be kept with joy".
He was an ally of Sanballat and Tobiah and adversary of Nehemiah (Neh. 2:19, 6:1).

When Nehemiah proceeded to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem, the Samaritans and the Arabs made efforts to hinder ...
