A brave company had set forth with him. Eight thousand Jews had been ready to leave comfort, luxury, and affluence behind, that they might go to the desolate city, and endeavour to stir up its people to energy and life. One of the 8,000 who went with Ezra was Nehemiah's brother, Hanani.
With a sigh she bent and touched the tiny forehead with her lips. Hanani's hand, long and bony, gently stroked her arm as she did so. "Old Hanani knows, mem-sahib," she whispered under her breath. The tears she had barely checked a moment before sprang to Stella's eyes. She held the dark hand in silence and was subtly comforted thereby.
He understands it, and He understands me, and He comforts me as no other can. The Lord is indeed my Comforter. So the little Nehemiah had grown up an ever-present reminder in his parents' home of the comfort of God. How many children Hachaliah had we are not told, but Nehemiah had certainly one brother, Hanani. There had been some years before this a parting in Hachaliah's family.
Of Heman: the sons of Heman: Bukkiah, Mattaniah, Uzziel, Shebuel, and Jerimoth, Hananiah, Hanani, Eliathah, Giddalti, and Romamtiezer, Joshbekashah, Mallothi, Hothir, and Mahazioth: All these were the sons of Heman the king's seer in the words of God, to lift up the horn. And God gave to Heman fourteen sons and three daughters.
She had a curious feeling as of one being guided through a holy place. "You comfort me, Hanani," she said after a moment. "I don't think I am really grieving for the baba yet. That will come after. I know that as you say he is at peace, and I would not call him back. But Hanani that is not all. It is not even the half or the beginning of my trouble.
He felt that he must therefore appoint deputies to guard the city for him, so that all might not hang upon the fact of his presence in the city. Whom did Nehemiah choose for this post of enormous trust? One was his brother Hanani, the very one who had come to see him in Persia.
Moreover " she stopped suddenly, and turned her head. "What is it?" said Stella. "I heard a sound, mem-sahib." Hanani rose slowly to her feet. It seemed to Stella that she was more bent, more deliberate of movement, than usual. Doubtless the wild adventure of the night had told upon her.
That Hanani, one of my brethren, came, he and certain men of Judah; and I asked them concerning the Jews that had escaped, which were left of the captivity, and concerning Jerusalem. And they said unto me, The remnant that are left of the captivity there in the province are in great affliction and reproach: the wall of Jerusalem also is broken down, and the gates thereof are burned with fire.
'The words of Nehemiah the son of Hachaliah. And it came to pass in the month Chislev, in the twentieth year, as I was in Shushan the palace, 2. That Hanani, one of my brethren, came, he and certain men of Judah; and I asked them concerning the Jews that had escaped, which were left of the captivity, and concerning Jerusalem. 3.
She felt as one coming out of an all-absorbing dream. Obeying an instinctive impulse, she rose up quickly to follow. But even as she did so, two things happened. Hanani passed like a shadow from her sight, and a voice she knew Tommy's voice, somewhat high-pitched and anxious called her name. Swiftly she moved to meet him. "I am here, Tommy! I am here!"
