Ketika Sanbalat dan Tobia serta orang Arab dan orang Amon dan orang Asdod mendengar, bahwa pekerjaan perbaikan tembok Yerusalem maju dan bahwa lobang-lobang tembok mulai tertutup, maka sangat marahlah mereka.
Demi didengar oleh Sanbalat dan Tobia dan orang Arab dan orang Ammoni dan orang Asdodi bahwa segala pecah-pecahan pagar tembok itu sudah dibaiki pula dan segala celahnya mulai ditumpatkan, maka berbangkitlah kehangatan amarahnya!

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And it came to pass that when Sanballat, and Tobiah, and the Arabians,.... Who were under and influenced by Geshem the Arabian:
and the Ammonites; over whom Tobiah was governor:
and the Ashdodites; who were of Ashdod or Azotus, one of the principalities of the Philistines, who were always enemies to the Jews:
heard that the walls of Jerusalem were made up; or "the length of them went up" d; that is, the height of them; that they rose up high apace, and were got up to, or almost to their proper height:
and that the breaches began to be stopped; for the walls were not all thrown down by the Chaldeans, but breaches made here and there, which were now repaired:
then they were very wroth; and could not avoid showing it; before they mocked them, as attempting what they could not go through with; but now, perceiving the work went on with great success, they were enraged.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The Arabians ... - Probably a band, composed largely of Arabians, Ammonites, and Ashdodites, which Sanballat maintained as a guard to his person, and which formed a portion of “the army of Samaria” Nehemiah 4:2. A quarrel between such a band and the people of Jerusalem might be overlooked by the Persian king.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Nehemiah 4:7. The walls of Jerusalem were made up — That is, they were made up to the half height of the wall; for the preceding verse seems to intimate that the whole wall was thus far built; not half of the wall completed, but the whole wall built to half its height.
