Exegesis
The temporal phrase bayamim hahemmah {בַּיָּמִ֣ים הָהֵ֡מָּה | bā-yā-mîm hā-hemmāh} ‘in those days’ frames the historical context.
In context — Nehemiah 13:15
In those days I saw people in Judah treading grapes in winepresses on the Sabbath . They brought in heaps, loaded them onto donkeys, and carried wine, grapes, figs, and every kind of burden into Jerusalem on the Sabbath day, and I warned them on the day of their selling food .
