Study Book: Nehemiah - The Courage to Face Opposition
Scripture: Nehemiah 10
Class Content:
On Monday December 9th, we by God’s grace were able to continue the study of Nehemiah.
We focused on Ne 10:1-39.
We identified the different groups of people are mentioned in this chapter that signed the Covenant – 22 Priest, 17 Levites, 44 other leaders and Nehemiah. We got into a discussion as to why Ezra is not mentioned as a signer of this covenant. Then we reviewed all the specific commitments such as taking appropriate care of God’s house, keeping the Sabbath business free, and having no intermarriage with foreigners. We discussed the meaning in Ne 10:29 of how they entered into a “curse” and an “oath” to walk in God’s law - how they were serious about the oath in that if they did not follow it they expected God’s curse upon them. We ended with a review of the prayer in Daniel 9 and comparing it to the prayer in Nehemiah 9.
Next: We will continue our study of Ne 10:1-39 starting with question 9 of our study guide found on page 35. We were tasked to see if there were any additional references regarding why Ezra did not sign the Covenant.
Our next study will be the book of Ezra, followed by Esther, and Acts.
