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














Hariph
The name Hariph appears in the context of the covenant renewal led by Nehemiah. Hariph is listed among the signatories, indicating a family or clan that was committed to the covenant. This reflects the importance of family and tribal identity in post-exilic Judah. The mention of Hariph may connect to the broader theme of restoration and commitment to God's law, as seen in the return from Babylonian exile. The name itself, meaning "autumn" or "harvest," could symbolize a time of gathering and renewal, aligning with the spiritual renewal taking place.

Anathoth
Anathoth is a town in the territory of Benjamin, known as the hometown of the prophet Jeremiah (Jeremiah 1:1). Its inclusion here signifies the participation of Benjamite families in the covenant renewal. Anathoth's historical significance as a Levitical city (Joshua 21:18) underscores the role of the priesthood and prophetic tradition in guiding the people back to faithfulness. The town's association with Jeremiah, who prophesied about the return from exile (Jeremiah 29:10-14), highlights the fulfillment of prophetic promises during Nehemiah's time.

Nebai
Nebai is less well-documented in biblical records, but its mention alongside other families suggests a collective commitment to the covenant. The inclusion of Nebai emphasizes the unity and diversity of the community in Jerusalem, as various families and clans came together to reaffirm their dedication to God's law. This reflects the broader biblical theme of unity among God's people, as seen in passages like Psalm 133:1, which speaks of the blessings of dwelling together in unity.
