Nehemiah
Nehemiah says he was the king’s cupbearer Nehemiah 1:11. The role explains why he later speaks directly with the king about Jerusalem.
11Lord, I beg you, let now your ear be attentive to the prayer of your servant, and to the prayer of your servants, who delight to fear your name; and please prosper your servant this day, and grant him mercy in the sight of this man. Now I was cup bearer to the king.
