Introduction to Nehemiah Chapter 6
Sanballat and his brethren, hearing the wall was finished, sent to Nehemiah, to have a meeting with him at a place named, which he refused, Nehemiah 6:1, then they sent him a terrifying letter, suggesting that he, and the Jews with him, would be treated as rebels, since their intention, as reported, was to make him king, which letter he regarded not, Nehemiah 6:3, then they employed some that pretended to be prophets to advise him to flee to the temple for safety, which he rejected, Nehemiah 6:10 and so the work went on and was finished, though there was a secret correspondence carried on between their enemies and some false brethren among themselves, Nehemiah 6:15.
