And I said unto the king, If it please the king, and if thy servant have found favour in thy sight, that thou wouldest send me unto Judah, unto the city of my fathers’ sepulchres, that I may build it.
Y le dije al rey: 'Si te parece bien, y si he hallado favor delante de ti, te ruego que me envíes a Judá, a la ciudad donde están sepultados mis padres, para que yo la reedifique.'
Nehemías pidió permiso al rey para ir a reconstruir Jerusalén, la ciudad de sus antepasados.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the 5th century BC, Nehemiah served as the cupbearer to King Artaxerxes of Persia, a position of great trust that gave him direct access to the king. When he received news that the walls of Jerusalem were in ruins and the city vulnerable, he was overcome with grief and spent time in prayer before approaching the king. In this verse, Nehemiah humbly requests permission to return to Judah to rebuild Jerusalem, specifically mentioning the tombs of his ancestors as a personal and cultural motivation tied to his heritage.
