Nehemiah 10
1. The names of those who sealed the covenant.
29. The points of the covenant.














(36) The firstborn of our sons, and of our cattle.--Similarly collocated in Numbers 16:15-16; but there the cattle are defined as "unclean beasts," thus distinguished from "the firstlings of our herds and of our flocks." The latter were to be brought to "the priests that minister" for sacrifice; the former were, with the sons, to be redeemed by money, according to the priests' valuation.

Verse 36. - The first-born of our sons and of our cattle, as it is written in the law. See Exodus 22:29; Exodus 34:19. The firstborn children were to be "redeemed."
