Nehemiah 2:1 - Forerunner Commentary

Nehemiah 2:1

Nehemiah Sent to Judah

1 And it came to pass in the month of Nisan, in the twentieth year of ^aKing Artaxerxes, when wine was before him, that ^bI took the wine and gave it to the king. Now I had never been sad in his presence before.

2 Therefore the king said to me, “Why is your face sad, since you are not sick? This is nothing but ^asorrow of heart.” So I became dreadfully afraid,

3 and said to the king, ^a“May the king live forever! Why should my face not be sad, when ^bthe city, the place of my fathers’ tombs, lies waste, and its gates are burned with ^cfire?”
