The Walls of Jerusalem
Long ago, the Jews who lived in Jerusalem turned away from
God and were evil. God had no choice but to punish them for
their evil so He caused them to be carried away into
captivity to a distant land. After many years, the Lord
allowed them to return to Jerusalem. When they arrived in
Jerusalem they discovered that the walls around the city had
been broken down. The people at once began to rebuild the
walls of Jerusalem. It was a very great task, but the
people worked with all their heart. As the work on the wall
continued, the enemies of the Jews attempted to stop the
work by scaring the workers. Then Nehemiah, who was in
charge of the building, said, "Do not be afraid! Remember
the Lord, who is great and awesome! He will fight for us!"
Then the workers continued to work until the walls around
Jerusalem were completed. The Jews dedicated the wall of
Jerusalem to the Lord and the Lord blessed them.
