Nehemiah rebuilt Jerusalem's wall in only 52 days. It made the city smaller than the original boundaries. The wall is made from stone and mortar with gates. One side is built on the slope.
The book of Nehemiah tells the story of the rebuilding of the wall. Specifically Chapters 3, 4, 5 and 6 talk about the rebuilding. In chapter 7:1 it begins with "Now it came to pass, when the wall was built..."
I was researching this to for Awana and I found out in my History Book (Mystory of History) that Nehemiah rebuilt his wall in 454 B.C. I hope this helps your questions :D Jasper
He rebuilt the walls of Jerusalem
The wall of Jerusalem was rebuilt approximately 52 days after the Israelites returned from Babylonian exile, as detailed in the Book of Nehemiah. Nehemiah, upon arriving in Jerusalem around 445 BCE, organized the reconstruction efforts which were completed in a remarkably short time despite opposition. This event marked a significant moment in the restoration of the Jewish community and their worship practices.
The walls were rebuilt using the materials from the rubble of the former walls, with some wooden beams in parts.
No. Nehemiah's wall was a fortification structure that surrounded the Old City of Jerusalem and has since been completely destroyed. The Western Wall is a retaining wall within the city to make the Great Temple esplanade level.
