Nehemiah 9:38New Century Version“Because of all this, we are making an agreement in writing, and our leaders, Levites, and priests are putting their seals on it.” See the chapter |
They joined their fellow Israelites and their leading men in taking an oath, which was tied to a curse in case they broke the oath. They promised to follow the Teachings of God, which they had been given through Moses the servant of God, and to obey all the commands, rules, and laws of the Lord our God.
