The daughter of Shecaniah is mentioned in Neh 6:18 as being married to one of the sons of Tobiah the Ammonite. Tobiah was an adversary who opposed Nehemiah's efforts to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem. The marriage alliance between Shecaniah's daughter and Tobiah's son highlights the complex relationships and connections that existed among the Jewish nobles and their neighboring tribes during the post-exilic period.
