BRAGADAYJAH 1211
The Book of Moses Read
On that day, that is to say at the time of the ceremony whereby the temple procedures were restored, they read the Book of Moses in the audience of the people. And within the Book there was found written that “The Ammonite and the Moabite should not come into the congregation of God ever.” Because they did not welcome the children of Israel with bread and water, but hired Balaam against them that he should curse them. But God had turned the curse into a blessing. So it came to pass that when they had heard the law, that they separated from Israel all the mixed multitude. Then about that time Nehemiah discovered that Eliashib the priest had made a pact with Tobiah and had given him a chamber within the House of the Lord, where they used to store the meat-offering, the frankincense and the vessels and tithes, of the corn, the wine and the oil which were the portion of the Levites and the singers the porters and the priests. So when the evil was discovered, Tobiah and all that pertained to him was cast out of the temple and it was cleansed, and after that the vessels of the house of God, and the meat offerings, and the frankincense, were placed therein.
