Note --These word Studies of this
lesson are based on the text of the
Devised Version.
Ezra -Nehemiah. -The hooks Ezra
and Nehemiah together rcoord events
of two most important epochs in the
history of the Jewish people, Tho
first of these epochs covers the perlod
of the return from captivity and the
rebuilding of the temple; the second
embraces the period of reform under
Ezra and the governorship of Near
mioh. An intervening period of al-
most sixty years is passed over in
silence by both books, except for two
brief references to persons and events
of this period in Ezra 4. 6 tad Nell.

Dent. 7. 9.) Tho expression "koopeth.
covenant and loving -kindness" is an
abbreviation of "keepeth covenant
and showeth kindness," To the Jew-
ish mind the rotation of sinful man
to God was that of a servant to b:s
master. Devotion on the part of man
could ho realized, therefore, only in
obedience to God's law.
6. While I confess the sins of the
children of Israel which we havo sin-
ned against thee -To Nehemiah the
scattered Jewish nation is still a
unit and as such God's people. It is
itself responsible for national dis-
aster which has come upon it. Wo

sin of the nation which Nehemiah
manifests and which is emphasied to
