Why was Nehemiah successful in convincing the people this time?
I.e. what 3 points does Nehemiah make publicly to rally the troops to rebuild (Nehemaih 2:11-20)?
Nehemiah 2:9 - 20
ESV - 9 Then I came to the governors of the province Beyond the River and gave them the king's letters. Now the king had sent with me officers of the army and horsemen. 10 But when Sanballat the Horonite and Tobiah the Ammonite servant heard this, it displeased them greatly that someone had come to seek the welfare of the people of Israel.
