Nehemiah 10
1. The names of those who sealed the covenant.
29. The points of the covenant.














Ater
The name "Ater" is of Hebrew origin, meaning "left-handed" or "bound." In the context of Nehemiah, Ater is listed among those who sealed the covenant, representing a family or clan that returned from the Babylonian exile. This highlights the inclusivity and diversity of the community committed to restoring Jerusalem and adhering to God's law. The mention of Ater signifies the importance of every family and individual in the collective effort to rebuild and renew their faith and society.

Hezekiah
"Hezekiah" is a name that means "Yahweh strengthens" or "God has strengthened." This name is significant in the Jewish tradition, as it is also the name of a notable king of Judah who was known for his faithfulness to God and his efforts to purify worship practices. In Nehemiah, the inclusion of a person named Hezekiah among the signatories of the covenant underscores the theme of spiritual renewal and the reliance on God's strength to uphold the community's commitments. It serves as a reminder of the legacy of faith and leadership that the people of Israel are called to emulate.

Azzur
The name "Azzur" means "helpful" or "one who helps." This name reflects the role of individuals and families in supporting the communal goals of the Jewish people during the time of Nehemiah. Azzur's presence in the list of covenant signatories emphasizes the collective responsibility and mutual support required to achieve the spiritual and physical restoration of Jerusalem. It highlights the biblical principle that each member of the community has a role to play in fulfilling God's purposes, and that through cooperation and assistance, the people can overcome challenges and remain faithful to their covenant with God.
