Chapter 11 God's Promise and Its Integrity
1. emigration to Jerusalem
Chapter 11 follows from the context of Chapter 7 verse 4. In other words, up to Chapter 7, records of the restoration of castle walls and castle gates were written. So we paused for a moment, and now the topic shifts to the affairs of the people who live in it. In other words, the origins of those who returned from the Babylonian captivity will be clarified (7:6-72), and in the new year, they will study the law, and their hearts will be renewed through prayer and covenants (chapter 8-10). ). And in chapter 11, the people living in Jerusalem are determined by lottery, and the city finally begins to move. A story that completes a so-called inhabited town and that town begins to move, inserts a story that renews the minds of the people who live there.
Jerusalem, the capital at that time, was a religious center with a temple, but it was a target for hostile attacks, and it was a difficult place to live, with little farmland to live on. So while the upper classes lived in Jerusalem at or before the time the wall was built, the common people lived in rural villages far from Jerusalem for economic reasons. However, after the ramparts were rebuilt, it was necessary to increase the number of inhabitants in order to defend the town. Therefore, emigration by lottery was encouraged. That is why people bless those who voluntarily settle in this inhospitable and costly city (v. 2).
So verse 3 onwards is a list of those who willingly moved to Jerusalem. With some variations, it's almost identical to the list in 1 Chronicles 9:2-21. The leaders of the tribe of Judah (verses 4-6), the leaders of the tribe of Benjamin (verses 7-9), the priests (verses 10-14), the Levites (verses 15-18), and the temple workers (verse 19). -24) are listed in order. The servants of the temple lived in Ophel. I'm not sure where it was. However, it is believed to have been located between the Temple in Jerusalem and the Old City of David. If it is correct, they have pre-selected a suitable place to reside in the temple for their ministry. A total of about 3,000 people emigrated. Verse 25 onwards is a list of towns other than Jerusalem, that is, settlements with farmland. A comparison with the place names in Joshua 15:21-62 and the lists in Ezra 2 and Nehemiah 3 reveals changes in the living conditions of the returnees.
2. God faithful in his promises
"But even so, who could have predicted that the town would be rebuilt like this?" It had long been prophesied that they would return to their homeland and rebuild their cities after being exiled, but few would have thought that would actually happen. In fact, it is rare in history for a country that was defeated in war to recover. However, the Jewish nation was defeated in the war and was rebuilt after going through the hardships of forced emigration to other countries, miscellaneous marriages, and exile.
While presenting such a history, what the author is trying to talk about is his sincerity and enthusiasm for God's promises. Everything that God has promised and said will surely be fulfilled. So is the atonement of Jesus on the cross. So is our new birth through the resurrection life of Jesus. In that case, we also need to be careful about the promise of Jesus' second coming, which has not yet been fulfilled.
"In any case, history presents us with irrefutable evidence." Considering the evidence, we should have a heart to remember God's sincerity and to respond to God's call, that is, to leave Jerusalem if there is a city to migrate to. Let us walk, acknowledging the sincerity of God, who foresees the steps of all mankind and invites us to his blessings. I hope you have a good day today.
<Quiz Corner>
First, yesterday's quiz. Which Greek coin was said to be worth as much as the Roman denarius? (1) Shekel, (2) drachma, (3) stater, the answer is (2) drachma. One shekel is equivalent to four Greek drachmas and four Roman denarii. One Israeli shekel is equal to one Greek stetar. So for today's Bible quiz, what is the correct theme for Nehemiah? (1) Reconstruction of the temple and restoration of worship, (2) Reconstruction of the walls and restoration of the city, (3) Protection from the threat of the destruction of the Israeli people, the answer will be tomorrow. I hope you have a good day today.
