Nehemiah 13, Part 2

This week we are studying Nehemiah 13. I divided the chapter into two parts to avoid rushing through the last nine verses of Nehemiah, which are thought-provoking to say the least. I have had part two of Nehemiah 13 written for weeks, but the events of October 7th took center stage in my mind and life and I assume they did for many of you as well. The first few days after Hamas’s killing spree, I was encouraged by the response of world leaders who unequivocally condemned the murder of innocent civilians. We have come to know more about Hamas’s disgusting tactics through the confessions of captured Hamas operatives, the footage from their body cameras, the recordings of their phone calls, and the evidence from the charred and mutilated bodies of their Jewish victims. And yet, support for Israel’s right to retaliate has weakened. Even worse, the details of Hamas’s incursion have emboldened the pro-Palestinian and pro-Hamas crowds. Their chants of death to the Zionists and Jews make me fear it is the 1940s all over again. But we will press on as an organization as we find ways to support modern Israel, confront the anti-Israel forces in America. We study the Bible as our foundation for why we do what we do and believe what we believe. Also, I got an email from one of Bible Fiber’s Jewish listeners in Virginia who asked that we keep pressing on in our study. So, Am Israel Chai and back to Nehemiah.Support the showConsider donating (one-time or recurring) to www.TheJerusalemConnection.us so we can continue to bring valuable content via podcasts free to the public.
