\\INTRODUCTION TO NEHEMIAH 13\\ This chapter relates the reformation of various abuses crept in among the Jews by Nehemiah, who removed the Moabites and Ammonites, mixed with them, \\#Ne 13:1-3\\, threw the household goods of Tobiah out of a chamber of the temple, and restored it to its former use, \\#Ne 13:4-9\\, took care that the Levites had their portion given them which had been kept from them, \\#Ne 13:10-14\\ prevented the profanation of the sabbath by selling goods on that day, \\#Ne 13:15-22\\, and put a stop to the marrying of strange wives, which had prevailed again among them, \\#Ne 13:23-31\\.
