What Does Nehemiah 3:10 Mean?
The narrative notes that Jedaiah worked on the stretch directly opposite his own home, with Hattush continuing beside him. This detail of building "over against his house" recurs through the chapter.
There is wisdom in repairing first what stands nearest your own door. When each person tends the portion closest to home, the whole wall rises together. Faithfulness often begins right where we live, with the part of God's work set plainly before us.
