Three Groups Resettle Jerusalem After the Exile | Day 264

Day 264 | Nehemiah 11:1–12:26; 1 Chronicles 9:1b-34After the walls of Jerusalem were rebuilt, the city still needed people to fill it. Nehemiah records how the leaders settled in the city, a tenth of the people were chosen by lot to move in, and others volunteered willingly. These names remind us that God’s Word is rooted in real people and real history. The blessing given to those who chose to resettle shows the Lord’s delight in willing obedience. Just as the people of old chose to make Jerusalem their home, we too are invited to choose daily to walk with the Lord and look forward to the new Jerusalem He has prepared.Hosts: Michael Pritchard, Derek EwaltVisit bellevue.org/bible for more resources and to download our reading plan.#ChronologicalBibleJourney #ChronologicalBible #BellevueBaptistChurch
