Our God Had Helped

Nehemiah 6:15-7:73

Key verse: 6:16B

“They realized that our God had helped us finish the work.”

1. Read 6:15-19. When was the wall completed? What happened when the enemies of the Jews heard about it? What did they realize? How was God glorified? What did Tobiah do?

2. Read 7:1-3. What was the final part of the wall to be completed? Who were appointed to positions? Why were Hanani and Hananiah put in charge of the city? How did Nehemiah continue to protect the city?

3. Skim through 7:4-73. Why do you think Nehemiah counted the people? Who helped pay for the work on the wall? What special groups of people do you find?
