This book takes its name from the writer, who was cupbearer to Artaxerxes (surnamed Longimanus) king of Persia, and was sent by him with a commission to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem. It is also called the second book of Esdras; because it is a continuation of the history, begun by Esdras, of the state of the people of God after their return from captivity. (For more information, see the article [http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/10737c.htm NEHEMIAS] in the Catholic Encyclopedia.)[http://www.newadvent.org/bible/neh000.htm]
