  1. Nehemiah

  8. Nehemiah’s secret wasa serious prayer life. • Nehemiah 1:4-11 • Nehemiah 2:4 • Nehemiah 4:4-5, 9 (pl.) • Nehemiah 5:19 • Nehemiah 6:9, 14 • Nehemiah 13:14, 22, 29, 31 (zakar lo elhi ltob “Remember me, oh my God, for good.”)

  9. Ingredient for Successin the Church Today • An often unseen ingredient in the early church’s success is found in … • “… prayer ...” (Ac. 6:4) • Pray, prayed, prayer, prayers and praying are mentioned 29 times in the Book of Acts on 19 specific occasions in 14 different chapters.

  10. See Nehemiah 6:15. • The work was done in fifty-two days and in the month of Elul which meant that this rebuilding program had been undertaken during the hot summer months between late July and mid-September, when hard relentless work of that character must have been desperately exhausting.

  11. Nehemiah 7:5-73 • The list here is an expression of the desire of the Jews to maintain a pure genealogical line. This list is almost identical with the version found in Ezra 2.

  12. Sin in Nehemiah

  13. Wycliffe Bible Commentary “This was in spite of the reforms which had been initiated by Ezra about thirty years before[!].” Earlier Ezra 10, and now Nehemiah 13, show us that problems related to mixed marriages are recurring again. Now Nehemiah 13, and later Malachi 1 and 3 show us that problems related to tithing are recurring again.
