What Are the People Weeping About?

What are the people weeping about? What are they grieving over? It all comes out in chapter ninei this beautiful, painful prayer confessing hundreds of years of failure and god's faithfulness. That's why they were crying, their guilt, their fear. And the an that nehemiah eint ten gives is there's a refuge. There's protection against what grieves you, your sin and god's holy judgment. So replace your grieving with that joy.
