Explaining the Word

Not for the few
those who had studied
explained to each one there
all to understand
the richness of God’s love
embedded in the scripture here

All who had gathered
listening to God’s word
read from high on the platform
under the Jerusalem sun
before the Lord
all brought closer to God

Men, women, and children
the whole community
sharing in the teaching that day
hearing the words of the Lord
explained by the teachers
that all would truly understand

Nehemiah 8:1-8
part of straight through bible study,
reading the bible in one year
