Nehemiah 9:1 - Forerunner Commentary

Nehemiah 9:1

The People Confess Their Sins

1 Now on the twenty-fourth day of ^athis month the children of Israel were assembled with fasting, in sackcloth, ^band with dust on their heads.

2 Then ^athose of Israelite lineage separated themselves from all foreigners; and they stood and ^bconfessed their sins and the iniquities of their fathers.

3 And they stood up in their place and ^aread from the Book of the Law of the Lord their God for one–fourth of the day; and for another fourth they confessed and worshiped the Lord their God.
