The methods taken to replenish it, Nehemiah 11:1, 11:2. II. The principal persons that resided there, of Judah and Benjamin (Nehemiah 11:3-11:9), of the priests and Levites, Nehemiah 11:10-11:19. III. The several cities and villages of Judah and Benjamin that were peopled by the rest of their families, Nehemiah 11:20-11:36. MHBCC 425.1
