Nehemiah 13:4-5

Context

13:4 But prior to this time, Eliashib the priest, a relative of Tobiah, had been appointed over the storerooms 1  of the temple of our God. 13:5 He made for himself a large storeroom where previously they had been keeping 2  the grain offering, the incense, and the vessels, along with the tithes of the grain, the new wine, and the olive oil as commanded for the Levites, the singers, the gate keepers, and the offering for the priests.

Nehemiah 6:17-19

Context

6:17 In those days the aristocrats of Judah repeatedly sent letters to Tobiah, and responses from Tobiah were repeatedly coming to them. 6:18 For many in Judah had sworn allegiance to him, 3  because he was the son-in-law of Shecaniah son of Arah. His son Jonathan had married the daughter of Meshullam son of Berechiah. 6:19 They were telling me about his good deeds and then taking back to him the things I said. 4  Tobiah, on the other hand, sent letters in order to scare 5  me.
