Nehemiah 6:10
7/16/2026
One day I went to the house of Shemaiah son of Delaiah, the son of Mehetabel, who was shut in at his home. He said, "Let us meet in the house of God, inside the Temple, and let us close the Temple doors by night because men are coming to kill you--by night they are coming to kill you."
Shemaiah is a false prophet who is trying to discredit Nehemiah by getting him to meet secretly in a room in the temple. Non-Levites were forbidden by the Law of Moses to enter the private areas of the Temple. If Nehemiah had done so, his enemies would use the occasion to discredit the leadership of Nehemiah. Shemaiah has invented an assassination plot to frighten Nehemiah into complying with the plan. The Lord Himself had enemies who tried to trick Him into sin. Nehemiah stood firm, even like our Lord Jesus.
