Subject: Can Nehemiah help in rebuilding of our y |
Bible Note: I love your list of lessons, Searcher. Here are a few more, from the latter part of the book: - Don't just read the Word, act on it (chapter 8) - Remember your community's spiritual history, including highs and lows, and learn from it (chapter 9) - Draw your community into renewed covenant with God (chapter 10) The list of names shows the people's commitment to the covenant (not just a leaders), epitomized by "we lay on ourselves the obligation...." (10:32) - The importance of tithing (compare 10:32ff to 13:10 ff) A question, however... please see my question at Nehemiah 13:25. JRM. |
