• {v.28-29} Eliashib himself, as we have seen, was "allied unto Tobiah," so that he and his family were linked up with the two active enemies of Israel.

To drive the sinner away was all that Nehemiah himself could accomplish; but he had another resource, of which he availed himself—he committed the matter to God.
