Nehemiah 5:5
6/15/2025
Although we are of the same flesh and blood as our countrymen, and our sons are as good as theirs, yet we have to subject our sons and daughter to slavery. Some of our daughters have already become enslaved, but we are powerless because our fields and our vineyards belong to them.
Wheeling and dealing among the rich and powerful has brought many Jews to lose control of their own property and their children to be under the thumb of the rich. Some who returned from Babylon to rebuild the Temple have switched focus to the goal of personal aggrandizement. Nehemiah is informed about what is going on, and he moves quickly to correct the situation. Jesus deals with this kind of thing by encouraging the hearts of those who suffer and touching the hearts of those who oppress. We know peace through the cross of Jesus.
