Are The Jewish People Enslaving Each Other? An Insight Into the Book of Nechemia

Slavery

Slavery

The Book of Nechemia depicts events that occurred to the Jewish people in the second half of the fifth century BCE. These events are for all intents and purposes the last events (in the Tanach) to depict the Jewish people before their final exile – which they are currently in. It was a time when Ezra, together with Nechemia were bringing the Jewish people back to the Land of Israel to build the Second Temple and hopefully bring a sense of redemption to the Jewish people. Of course, only those who chose to come back actually came back, and of course, that redemption they were hoping for would only happen if the Jewish people returned wholeheartedly to God.
