Nehemiah, the Tirshatha
on Nehemiah 10:1-8
Nehemiah's own name leads the list of seals, styled the Tirshatha, the Persian governor's title he already carries at 8:9 and 12:26, and named son of Hachaliah as at 1:1. Twenty-one priestly names follow him to the close of the roll at verse 8, the priesthood sealing first as it does again at the wall's dedication. Ezra's name is absent from the seals; Wesley reads sickness or some other hindrance as the reason, since the narrative meets him again at the dedication in 12:36.
