Nehemiah
Jerusalem’s walls rebuilt, and a people renewed around the law.
About Nehemiah
Nehemiah hears that Jerusalem lies broken, prays, and asks the Persian king for leave to rebuild. The wall goes up in fifty-two days despite ridicule, threats and internal injustice — a compact case study in prayerful, practical leadership. The second half turns from stone to people, as Ezra reads the law aloud and the community renews its covenant.
