The Key Word — מִדָּה, mi.Dahgenerated
The word מִדָּה (mi.Dah) is a feminine noun meaning a measured portion, often used to describe dimensions or sizes. It can refer to physical measurements like height or width, as well as metaphorical measurements such as tribute or garments. The parsing indicates it is a common noun in singular form, suggesting a specific portion in the context of the repairs being made.
In this verse, it signifies the specific section of the wall that was repaired, highlighting the organized effort in the rebuilding process. The use of the word emphasizes the importance of measurement and planning in the restoration of Jerusalem.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against. The BSB has another section, which aligns with the KJV and ASV, both of which use similar phrasing.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The finite verb governing the main clause is הֶחֱזִיק֙, he repaired, which connects the actions of the subjects, Malchijah and Hasshub, to the object of their work. The structure is straightforward, with the subjects preceding the verb, indicating their active role in the repairs.
The sentence includes several noun phrases, detailing who is involved and what is being repaired, with a clear focus on the specific section and the tower, emphasizing the organized effort of the community.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates מִדָּה as δεύτερος, which means 'second.' This choice narrows the focus to the ordinal aspect of the section being repaired, rather than just indicating an additional part.
This translation choice highlights the Greek translators' understanding of the Hebrew context, emphasizing the sequential nature of the repairs being made.

The latter is the more natural interpretation. There is this difficulty: whereas in Nehemiah 3:21; Nehemiah 3:27 we find the recurrence of names which have occurred earlier in the chapter (Nehemiah 3:4-5), in this verse and in 19, 20, 24, 30 the names of those who are said to repair ‘another…

ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.
OF, preposition ov. [Gr.]
1. From or out of; proceeding from, as the cause, source, means, author or agent bestowing.

In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.
