Nehemiah 11:1
1 The rulers, voluntary men, and the tenth man chosen by lot, dwell at Jerusalem.3 A catalogue of their names.20 The residue dwell in other cities. the rulers.7:4,5; De 17:8,9; Ps 122:5cast lots.Jerusalem certainly had many inhabitants at this time, but not sufficient to preserve the city, which was now encompassed with a wall, the building of which was going on fast. Nehemiah, therefore, obliged one-tenth of the country people to come and dwell in it, that the population might be sufficient for the defence of the city. Some volunteered their services, which was at that time considered a sacrifice to patriotism; as Jerusalem then afforded very few advantages, and was a place of considerable danger: hence "the people blessed them that willingly offered themselves." 10:34; Jos 18:10; 1Ch 26:13; Pr 16:33; Ac 1:24one of ten.Jud 20:9,10the holy.18; Isa 48:2; 52:1; Mt 4:5; 27:53Isaiah 48:2
