BRAGADAYJAH 1201
The Sealed Covenant.
As a result of the realization and confession of their transgressions against the commandments of their Lord their God, and of His continual goodness and mercy toward them, and pledging themselves to be obedient and faithful in the future, Nehemiah together with the nobles, the Levites, priests and rulers, made a solemn covenant; and having written it signed it with their signatures and sealed it. There were twenty seven signatures in all, in addition to the assent of the rest of the people, the priests and the Levites the porters, the singers, the Nethinims and all they that had separated themselves from the people of the land unto the law of God, together with their wives, their sons, and their daughters and everyone old enough to have knowledge and understanding. They clave to their brethren, their nobles and entered into the curse and into an oath, to walk in God’s law which was given by Moses the servant of God, and to observe and do all the commandments of the Lord their God, His judgments and his statutes.
