- Jerusalem was the holy city, and the wall was built under the
- immediate superintendence and blessing of Jehovah: it was
- therefore proper that it should be dedicated to that God who
- was there worshipped by solemn praises, prayers, and
- sacrifices. The dedication seems to have consisted in
- processions of the most eminent persons around the walls, with
- thanksgivings to God, who had enabled them to bring the work
- to so happy a conclusion; and, no doubt, to all this were
- added a particular consecration of the city to God, and the
- most earnest invocation that He would take it under His
- guardianship, and defend it and its inhabitants against their
- enemies.

- If thou wert strict to mark what is done amiss, even my good
- deeds must be wiped out: but, Lord, remember me in thy mercy,
- and let my upright conduct be acceptable to Thee! By some,
- Nehemiah has been thought to deal too much with God on the
- principle of merit. That he wished God to remember him for
- good is sufficiently evident, and who does not wish the same?
- But that he expected heaven for his good deeds does not
- appear; for it is perfectly clear that he expected nothing
- from God but through the greatness of his mercy.
