NEHEMIAH CONFESSED HIS SINS AND THE SINS OF OUR FOREFATHERS

Nehemiah confessed his sins and the sins of his forefathers.

Nehemiah 1:2 That Hanani, one of my brethren, came, he and certain men of Judah; and I asked them concerning the Jews that had escaped which were left of the captivity and concerning Jerusalem.

Nehemiah 1:3 And they said unto me, The remnant that are left of the captivity there in the province are in great affliction and reproach: the wall of Jerusalem also is broken down, and the gates thereof are burned with fire.
