The Book of Nehemiah Chapter 3 (3 of 13)
Harley Howard
1 Then Eliashib the high priest rose up with his
brethren the priests, and they builded the sheep gate;
they sanctified it, and set up the doors of it; even
unto the tower of Meah they sanctified it, unto the

These men confined their work to sacred localities.
The sheep gate was the place where sacrificial lambs

SIMULTANEOUSLY and the work could be done FASTER AS

There were 10 gates and four towers mentioned in this
chapter. They needed repair and notice who did the
