# Sanballat
|
|
|
|
This is a man's name. See how you translated this in [Nehemiah 2:10](../02/10.md). (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/translate-names]])

# it burned within him, and he was furiously angry
|
|
|
|
Here "it" refers to Sanballat's realization that the Jews are rebuilding the walls. This speaks of Sanballat becoming very angry as if his anger were a burning fire. Alternate translation: "he became furiously angry" or "he became very angry" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
