Who he was
Meshullam, the son of Besodeiah, is mentioned in the book of Nehemiah as one of the individuals who helped repair the Old Gate during the rebuilding of Jerusalem's wall (Nehemiah 3:6). He worked alongside Joiada, the son of Paseah, to repair and restore this gate. The Old Gate was one of the main entrances to the city of Jerusalem, and its repair was crucial for the security and functionality of the city. Meshullam's participation in this task demonstrates his willingness to contribute to the restoration of Jerusalem and its infrastructure.
