## Introduction

Introduction Chapter 1 Chapters 2 to 6 Chapter 7 Chapter 8 Chapters 9 to 11 Chapters 12 and 13 Summary | #### Nehemiah as a necessary link in the history of God's dealings towards Jerusalem The Book of Nehemiah will require but few remarks; but it is important to establish its import. It is a necessary link in the history of God's dealings, in the recital of His patience and loving-kindness towards Jerusalem, which He had chosen. In Ezra we have seen the temple rebuilt and the authority of the law re-established among the people, who are again separated from the Gentiles, and set apart for God. In Nehemiah we witness the rebuilding of the walls of Jerusalem, and the restoration of what may be termed the civil condition of the people, but under circumstances that definitely prove their subjection to the Gentiles. |
