Levites made the law clear to the people
and the people kept in their places and
they gave out the words of the book the
law of God clearly clearly and gave the
sense of it so that their minds were
able to take it in so that the people
were able to understand what was being
said
and nehemiah was the tersh shotta and
Ezra the priest and scribe the priest
and scribe at earshot is a is like a

sent him to rebuild the wall he had
given him a title some authority to do

Persians of course a nehemiah who was
the turk shotta and Ezra the priest and
scribe and the Levites who were the
teachers of the people said to all the
people this day is holy to the Lord your
God let there be no sorrow or weeping
for all the people were weeping on
hearing the words of the law then he
said to them go away now and take the
fat for your food and a sweet for your
drink and sent some to him for whom
nothing is made ready listen to the Word
of God understand it take it to heart
judge yourself against the Word of God

wrong then go out enjoy what the Lord
has provided for you and gives some an
important thing that a lot of people hmm
and give some to those who have nothing
for this day is holy to our Lord this
day and some
say it’s a specific day is holy to our
Lord remember the other part of
scripture for Scripture is one it’s not
different pieces against one another
when Paul said to some man some days are
more holy than others but to some all
days are the same me all these are the
same all these are holy all these are
made by the Lord all these are given by
God and for that reason to me all these
are holding I continue my first name for
this day is holy to our Lord and let
there be no grief in your hearts for the
joy of the Lord is your strong place so
the Levites made all the people quiet
saying be quiet stop weeping be quiet
for the day is holy and do not give way
to grief and all the people went away to
take food and drink and to send food to
others and to be glad because the words
which were said to them had been made
clear they had wept over what they had
not done of the word and then the
priests comforted them blessing them
saying a prayer over them saying come on
be glad do the work that you have to do
give something to those who have nothing
enjoy what the Lord has provided for you
and be glad that he has provided
so we receive Christ isn’t it Lord
forgive us for going after the world
instead of after you but thank you Lord
for coming and being in us with us
making us aware of your presence at all
times
thank you Jesus with joy and on the
second day the heads of families of all
the people and a priests and the Levites
came together to Azra describe to give
attention to the words of the law as
there was a priest and a squirrel
Ezra was a priest and a scribe and they
saw that it was recorded in the law that
the Lord had given orders by Moses that
the children of Israel were to have
tents for their living places in the
feast of the seventh month and that they
were to give out an order and make it
public in all their towns and in
Jerusalem saying go out to the mountain
and got olive branches and branches of
field olives and of Myrtle and palm
branches and branches of thick trees to
make tents as it says in the book and
the people went out and got them and
made themselves stands everyone on the
roof of his house and in the open spaces
and in the open squares of the house of
God and in the wide place of the water
doorway and a wide place of the doorway
of Ephraim with a wide places mended the
little park a little after the entryway
you’d have an open space so people could
flow through and out and that’s where
all the people
who had been prisoners and had come back
made tents and were living in them for
from the time of Joshua the son of nun
till that day the children of Israel had
not done so and there was very great joy
