Exegesis
The initial vav-consecutive verb vayera {וַיֵּרַע | wayyērāʿ} ‘it was evil’ introduces a narrative pivot into Nehemiah’s emotional response, with the prepositional phrase li {לִי | li} ‘to me’ and the intensifier meod {מְאֹד | məʾôḏ} ‘very’ foregrounding personal distress.
In context — Nehemiah 13:8
I was very displeased, and I threw out all the household goods of Tobiah outside the chamber.
