Sanballat, Tobiah, and Geshem repeatedly try to pull Nehemiah away from the work, then circulate a false accusation that he plans rebellion and kingship. A hired prophet attempts to frighten him into hiding unlawfully in the temple. Nehemiah refuses the traps, and the wall is completed in fifty-two days despite continuing political connections between Tobiah and some Judean nobles.
