Ne 8:7

SEV Biblia, Chapter 11:16

y Sabetai y Jozabad, de los principales de los levitas, capataces de la obra exterior de la Casa de Dios;

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Nehemiah 11:16

Verse 16. And Shabbethai] This verse, with verses 20, 21, 28, 29, 32, 33, 34, and 35, are all wanting in the Septuagint and the whole chapter is wanting in the Arabic, the translator not being concerned in Jewish
genealogies.

The outward business] Calmet supposes that he provided the victuals for the priests, victims for the sacrifices, the sacerdotal vestments, the sacred vessels, and other necessaries for the service of the temple.


John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 16. And Shabbethai and Jozabad, of the chief of the Levites , etc.] Along with Shemaiah; these had the oversight of the outward business of the house of God : who had the care of the repairs of the temple, and of getting in the wood for the altar, as Jarchi, and collecting the third part of the shekel, to purchase things with for the use of the temple.

Matthew Henry Commentary

The distribution of the people.

--In all ages, men have preferred their own ease and advantage to the public good. Even the professors of religion too commonly seek their own, and not the things of Christ. Few have had such attachment to holy things and holy places, as to renounce pleasure for their sake. Ye surely, our souls should delight to dwell where holy persons an opportunities of spiritual improvement most abound. If we have not thi love to the city of our God, and to every thing that assists ou communion with the Saviour, how shall we be willing to depart hence; to be absent from the body, that we may be present with the Lord? To the carnal-minded, the perfect holiness of the New Jerusalem would be stil harder to bear than the holiness of God's church on earth. Let us see first the favour of God, and his glory; let us study to be patient contented, and useful in our several stations, and wait, with cheerfu hope, for admission into the holy city of God __________________________________________________________________
