Nehemiah 10:1

Nehemiah 10:1 says. Now those that sealed were, Nehemiah, the Tirshatha, the son of Hachaliah, and Zidkijah,  The first part of this chapter just lists those who were referred to as being sealed.  Once the covenant was read, these people quickly gave their assent to it and signed a pledge to do so as Matthew Henry points out.  We need to act quickly when we hear the gospel and accept Jesus Christ as our Savior and Lord and enter into a covenant relationship with Him.  God then seals us as His forever.  I will simply list these verses without much comment. 

Verse two adds, Seraiah, Azariah, Jeremiah,

Verse three continues, Pashur, Amariah, Malchijah, 

Verse four states, Hattush, Shebaniah, Malluch, ]

Verse five adds, Harim, Meremoth, Obadiah, 

Verse six continues, Daniel, Ginnethon, Baruch,

Verse seven says, Meshullam, Abijah, Mijamin, 

Verse eight adds, Maaziah, Bilgai, Shemaiah: these were the priests.  We do have the clarification that those listed so far were the priests, and as Christians, we are all a part of the priesthood of believers. 

Verse nine states, And the Levites: both Jeshua the son of Azaniah, Binnui of the sons of Henadad, Kadmiel;  Next the Levites were listed.  These are the people who took care of the work in the temple, and as followers of Christ, we are to take care of our bodies, the temple of the Holy Spirit, but also of the worship service when we gather as a body of believers.  We all have a responsibility in the church. 

Verse ten adds, And their brethren, Shebaniah, Hodijah, Kelita, Pelaiah, Hanan,   

Verse eleven continues, Micha, Rehob, Hashabiah, 

Verse twelve states, Zaccur, Sherebiah, Shebaniah, 

Verse thirteen adds, Hodijah, Bani, Beninu. 

Verse fourteen continues, The chief of the people; Parosh, Pahathmoab, Elam, Zatthu, Bani, 

Verse fifteen states, Bunni, Azgad, Bebai, 

Verse sixteen adds, Adonijah, Bigvai, Adin, 

Verse seventeen continues, Ater, Hizkijah, Azzur,

Verse eighteen states, Hodijah, Hashum, Bezai,

Verse nineteen adds, Hariph, Anathoth, Nebai, 

Verse twenty continues, Magpiash, Meshullam, Hezir, 

Verse twenty-one says, Meshezabeel, Zadok, Jaddua, 

Verse twenty=two adds, Pelatiah, Hanan, Anaiah, 

Verse twenty-three continues, Hoshea, Hananiah, Hashub, 

Verse twenty-four states. Hallohesh, Pileha, Shobek, 

Verse twenty-five adds, Rehum, Hashabnah, Maaseiah, 

\Verse twenty-six continues, And Ahijah, Hanan, Anan, 

Verse twenty-seven concludes, Malluch, Harim, Baanah. These were all people involved in proclaiming God's will to the people and carrying out the duties of the temple. As Christians, we all have responsibilities that we should fulfill in the church, and we should all work together to ensure that it happens.
