Nehemiah 6:15-16 So the wall was completed in fifty-two days, on the twenty-fifth of Elul. / When all our enemies heard about this, all the surrounding nations were afraid and disheartened, for they realized that this task had been accomplished by our God. Nehemiah 8:1-3 At that time all the people gathered together in the square before the Water Gate, and they asked Ezra the scribe to bring out the Book of the Law of Moses, which the LORD had commanded for Israel. / On the first day of the seventh month, Ezra the priest brought the Law before the assembly of men and women and all who could listen and understand. / So Ezra read it aloud from daybreak until noon as he faced the square before the Water Gate, in front of the men and women and those who could understand.

They appointed Levites twenty years of age or older to supervise the construction of the house of the LORD. / So Jeshua and his sons and brothers, Kadmiel and his sons (descendants of Yehudah), and the sons of Henadad and their sons and brothers—all Levites—joined together to supervise those working on the house of God. / When the builders had laid the foundation of the temple of the LORD, the priests in their apparel with trumpets, and the Levites (the sons of Asaph) with cymbals, took their positions to praise the LORD, as David king of Israel had prescribed. ...

Whoever among you belongs to His people, may the LORD his God be with him, and may he go up.’” Isaiah 10:20-22 On that day the remnant of Israel and the survivors of the house of Jacob will no longer depend on him who struck them, but they will truly rely on the LORD, the Holy One of Israel. / A remnant will return—a remnant of Jacob—to the Mighty God. / Though your people, O Israel, be like the sand of the sea, only a remnant will return. Destruction has been decreed, overflowing with righteousness. Jeremiah 29:10-14 For this is what the LORD says: “When Babylon’s seventy years are complete, I will attend to you and confirm My promise to restore you to this place. / For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, to give you a future and a hope. / Then you will call upon Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. ...

Their offerings The whole assembly This phrase refers to the collective group of Israelites who returned from the Babylonian exile to Jerusalem and Judah. The term "assembly" is often used in the Old Testament to describe the gathered people of Israel, emphasizing their unity and shared purpose. This assembly was significant as it represented the remnant of God's chosen people, fulfilling prophecies of return and restoration found in books like Isaiah and Jeremiah. The gathering of the assembly also prefigures the New Testament concept of the church as the body of Christ, a spiritual assembly of believers. numbered 42360 Persons / Places / Events 1. NehemiahA Jewish leader and cupbearer to the Persian king Artaxerxes, Nehemiah was instrumental in rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem and reforming the community. 2. Jerusalem The central city of Jewish worship and identity, Jerusalem had been in ruins after the Babylonian exile and was being restored under Nehemiah's leadership. 3. The Assembly Refers to the collective group of Israelites who returned from exile to Jerusalem and Judah. This group was essential in re-establishing the Jewish community and religious practices. 4. The Exile The period when the Israelites were taken captive to Babylon, which lasted approximately 70 years. The return from exile marked a significant moment of restoration and renewal for the Jewish people. 5. The Census The counting of the people, as recorded in Nehemiah 7, was crucial for organizing the community and ensuring that the necessary resources and roles were allocated for the rebuilding efforts. Teaching Points The Importance of CommunityThe assembly of 42,360 people underscores the significance of community in God's plan. Each individual plays a role in the collective mission of God's people. God's Faithfulness in Restoration The return of the exiles and the rebuilding of Jerusalem is a testament to God's faithfulness in restoring His people. This encourages believers to trust in God's promises of restoration in their own lives. Order and Organization in God's Work The detailed census reflects the need for order and organization in accomplishing God's work. Believers are called to be diligent and organized in their service to God. Identity and Belonging The census helped the Israelites reclaim their identity and sense of belonging. In Christ, believers find their true identity and belonging in the family of God.Verse 66. - The whole congregation together was forty and two thousand three hundred and threescore. It makes against the view of Bishop Patrick and others, who regard Ezra's list as made at Babylon, some time before the final departure, and Nehemiah's as made at Jerusalem, after the arrival of the exiles, that the sum total is in each case the same (see Ezra 2:64). Bishop Kennicott's theory, that the three lists - that of Ezra, that of Nehemiah, and that in the first of Esdras - had all one original, and that the existing differences proceed entirely from mistakes of the copyists, is the only tenable one. It is especially remarkable that the differences in the numbers of the three lists consist chiefly in a single unit, a single ten, or a single hundred - or in a five; less often in two units, or two tens, or two hundreds, or in a six - differences probably arising from the obliteration of one or two signs in a notation resembling the Roman or the Egyptian, where there are special signs for a thousand, a hundred, ten, five, and the unit, complex numbers being expressed by repetition of these, as 3438 in Latin inscriptions by MMMCCCCXXXVIII. Any fading of a sign in such a notation as this causes a copyist to diminish the amount by one, five, ten, a hundred, a thousand, etc. A fading of two sigmas may produce a diminution of two thousand, two hundred, twenty, two; or again of eleven hundred, one hundred and ten, one hundred and five, fifteen, eleven, six, and the like.
