The children of Reaiah, the children of Rezin, the children of Nekoda,
The verse belongs to a renewed numbering of the Jews who returned from captivity, preserving the list of names in the records of the return. That numbering was given again after the wall was finished in fifty-two days in spite of plots and hostile machinations. Even their enemies perceived that the work had been wrought of God. Proper officers and watches had then been appointed, and this took place in B.C. 444. The verse contains no expressed promise.
