And they said unto me, The remnant that are left of the captivity there in the province are in great affliction and reproach: the wall of Jerusalem also is broken down, and the gates thereof are burned with fire.
Me dijeron: 'Los sobrevivientes que quedaron del exilio y viven en la provincia están en gran aflicción y deshonra. La muralla de Jerusalén está derribada, y sus puertas han sido quemadas con fuego.'
Los judíos que regresaron del exilio vivían en gran aflicción porque Jerusalén estaba destruida y sin protección.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the book of Nehemiah, set around 450 BC during the Persian Empire's rule, Nehemiah was a Jewish exile serving as a cupbearer to the king when he learned about the dire conditions in Jerusalem from fellow Jews. The remnant refers to the survivors of the Babylonian captivity who had returned to Judah but were enduring great suffering, including oppression and ridicule from neighboring peoples, as the city's defenses had been destroyed during the Babylonian invasion in 586 BC. This news highlighted the ongoing vulnerability of the Jewish people and the urgent need for rebuilding to restore their security and dignity.
