In the final chapters of Nehemiah, we read that the rebuilding of Jerusalem’s physical walls had been completed, but were there other walls that needed building? Personal walls and that of the church? Did any of them need repair? Were there things that needed to be knocked down so that holiness could be exalted?

Nehemiah went back to Persia, reporting to King Artaxerxes, and had left his brother Hanani in charge over the city. While he was away the people became sloppy in their spiritual lives; they were no longer watchful as they previously had been, and had dramatically neglected all of the promises and vows that they had made in the earlier chapters. Nehemiah then returned and confronted the situation.
