When the people gathered to help Nehemiah build the wall of Jerusalem, they needed to be organized, they needed to be a nation again. When they finished the hard grind of building the wall, they needed to be motivated to come alive again. There were so many Jews who had come back to Jerusalem—the Promised Land—and were very tired and worn out. They
had just experienced the punishment of seventy years of exile. They needed to be reorganized and restructured in the way God had envisioned them. That is why God sets apart leaders to motivate people, even today, and one of those leaders was Nehemiah. Nehemiah gathered
them together and organized a numbering by genealogy of those who had returned to Jerusalem. Israel would be a nation once more. The records of his organizational skills are recorded in the seventh chapter of his book.
