Sanballat and Tobiah Mock the Jews’ Work

4 ^[a]Now it happened that when ^(A)Sanballat heard that we were rebuilding the wall, he became angry and very vexed and mocked the Jews. ² He spoke in the presence of his brothers and ^(B)the ^[b]wealthy men of Samaria and said, “What are these feeble Jews doing? Are they going to restore it for themselves? Can they offer sacrifices? Can they complete it in a day? Can they bring the stones to life from the ^[c](C)dusty rubble, though they are burned?”
