**Overview**
**** [Nehemiah 2:1](../../../kjv/nehemiah/2/1), Artaxerxes, understanding the cause of Nehemiah’s sadness, sends him with letters and commission to Jerusalem; [Nehemiah 2:9](../../../kjv/nehemiah/2/9), Nehemiah, to the grief of the enemies, comes to Jerusalem; [Nehemiah 2:12](../../../kjv/nehemiah/2/12), He views secretly the ruins of the walls; [Nehemiah 2:17](../../../kjv/nehemiah/2/17), He incites the Jews to build.

**Nisan:** [Esther 3:7](../../../kjv/esther/3/7)
**the twentieth:** [Nehemiah 1:1](../../../kjv/nehemiah/1/1), [Ezra 7:1](../../../kjv/ezra/7/1), [Ezra 7:7](../../../kjv/ezra/7/7)

**Why is thy:** [Genesis 40:7](../../../kjv/genesis/40/7)
**sorrow:** [Proverbs 15:13](../../../kjv/proverbs/15/13)
**Then I:** Probably the king spoke as if he had some suspicion that Nehemiah harboured some bad design, and that his face indicated some conceived treachery, or remorse; and, indeed, the words rendered sad, and sorrow of heart, might be rendered evil, and wickedness of heart.

**The God:** [Nehemiah 2:4](../../../kjv/nehemiah/2/4), [2 Chronicles 26:5](../../../kjv/2-chronicles/26/5), [Psalms 20:5](../../../kjv/psalms/20/5), [Psalms 35:27](../../../kjv/psalms/35/27), [Psalms 102:13](../../../kjv/psalms/102/13), [Psalms 102:14](../../../kjv/psalms/102/14), [Psalms 122:6](../../../kjv/psalms/122/6), [Ecclesiastes 7:18](../../../kjv/ecclesiastes/7/18)

Our prayers must be seconded with our serious endeavours, or else we mock God. Nearly four months had passed, namely, from Chisleu to Nisan - November to March before Nehemiah made his application to the king for leave to go to Jerusalem; either because the winter was not a proper time for such a journey, and he would not make a motion till he could pursue it, or because it was so long before his month of waiting upon the king came, and there was no coming into his presence until called for, [Esther 4:11](../../../kjv/esther/4/11). We are not thus limited to certain moments in our addresses to the King of kings, but have liberty of access to him at all times; to the throne of grace we never come unseasonably.
