Nehemia 13:4
Konteks13:4 But prior to this time, Eliashib the priest, a relative of Tobiah, had been appointed over the storerooms 1 of the temple of our God.
Nehemia 13:13
Konteks13:13 I gave instructions 2 that Shelemiah the priest, Zadok the scribe, and a certain Levite named Pedaiah be put in charge of 3 the storerooms, and that Hanan son of Zaccur, the son of Mattaniah, be their assistant, 4 for they were regarded as trustworthy. It was then their responsibility to oversee the distribution to their colleagues. 5
[13:4] 1 tc The translation reads the plural rather than the singular of the MT.
[13:13] 2 tc Probably one should read with the Lucianic Greek recension, the Syriac Peshitta, and the Vulgate וָאֲצַוֶּה (va’atsavveh, “and I commanded”) rather than the rare denominative verb וָאוֹצְרָה (va’otsÿrah, “and I appointed over the storeroom”) of the MT.
