Nehemiah 10—13

Christian talk radio with J. Vernon McGee

With hearts right with God, the Israelites made a covenant with God to do three things: Not to intermarry with non-Jews, to observe the Sabbath and holy days, and to follow the ordinances of first fruits and sacrifices. The people celebrated their new, safe city and relationship with God. Nehemiah then returned to Persia. However, when he returned later, he found the people had broken all three of their promises to God.
