Clarke's Nehemiah 3:20 Bible Commentary

Earnestly repaired - He distinguished himself by his zeal and activity.

Barnes's Nehemiah 3:20 Bible Commentary

The other piece - Rather, "another piece." The notice of Baruch's first piece, like that of Malchijah's and Hashub's Nehemiah 3:11, seems to have slipped out of the text.

Wesley's Nehemiah 3:20 Bible Commentary

3:20 Earnestly - Did his work with eminent diligence and fervency: which is here noted to his commendation. And it is probable, this good man's zeal provoked many, to take the more pains, and make the more haste.
