Commentary on Nehemiah 7:462 voices
Or perhaps one was the account of them when they set out from Babylon with Zerubbabel, the other when they came to Jerusalem. The sum totals are all just the same there and here, except of the singing-men and singing-women, which there are 200, here 245.
Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710Puritan
He appointed the porters, singers, and Levites, in their places to their work. This is meant of their work in general, which was to attend the temple service; it had been neglected in some degree, but now was revived. God's worship is the defence of a place, and his ministers, when they mind their duty, are watchmen on the walls.
Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710Puritan
- Nehemiah 11:21
The temple servants lived on the hill of Ophel, with Ziha and Gishpa over them.
Commentary on Nehemiah 11:212 voices
But the Nethinims dwelt in Ophel,.... An high place or tower on the wall of Jerusalem, see 2Ch 27:3, and Ziha, and Gispa, were over the Nethinims; had the oversight of them, and took care that they did their work; they were such themselves, but the principal of them, see Ezr 2:43.
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
The Nethinims dwelt in Ophel - Which was upon the wall of Jerusalem, because they were to do the servile work of the temple: therefore they were to be posted near it, that they might be ready to attend.
