Jerusalem is called God’s city. The LORD will return there, in His perfect timing. Throughout history, God’s city has had many difficult times and some great times. Today, Jerusalem is a city populated by about one million people and growing. There is a whole wave of modern Jews “making Aliyah” to Israel. But there was a time when people needed to make a decision about living there again. As a capital city, Jerusalem had a rough history of changing hands and rebuilding it meant potential opposition and threats from enemy nations.
Nehemiah 11 speaks about the people who willingly chose to live there in the 5th century BC. The priests had to be established first, since they were the ones who did the work of God. Then others were chosen as they fulfilled the work of the city. Today, Jesus Christ has fulfilled the Law and gives us the responsibility of following His call and work.
