In this episode, Christopher Enoch conducts an in-depth textual and historical analysis of Nehemiah Chapters 11-13. By comparing the oldest available manuscripts—including the Greek Septuagint, Syriac Peshitta, and Latin Vulgate—against the mainstream Masoretic Hebrew, we reveal how scribal changes and historical context reshape our understanding of post-exilic Jerusalem, the Broad Wall, and Nehemiah's intense reforms.
