Sanballat: Held some place of authority in Samaria when Nehemiah went up to
Jerusalem to rebuild its ruined walls. He vainly attempted to hinder
this work
(Nehemiah 2:10,19; 4:1-12; 6:1)ff His daughter became the wife of
one of the sons of Joiada, a son of the high priest, much to the
grief of Nehemiah
(Nehemiah 13:28)
