Summary
In Nehemiah 13, we find that Nehemiah, despite his clear conscience, is disappointed that the people couldn’t keep their promises to serve faithfully. This situation reminds us that human nature hasn’t changed over time; we still struggle with living a sinless life. As the saying goes, “The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
Commentator David Guzik reminds us that if we could be saved by our own promises and commitment to Jesus, His sacrifice on the cross would have been unnecessary. Our salvation doesn’t come from our vows or efforts but from trusting in Jesus and His work to save us.
