Carey. solicitor general and vice presi-
dent and director of the Standard OIL

IL was Nehemiah who organized the returned sx-
hes and rebuilt the walls Of Jerusalem. which had
been broken down by the soldiers OF Nebuchadnezzar
almost $50 years before.
But even after the city walls had been rebuilt. and
Jerusalem thereby rendered comparatively safe from
the attack Of swarming enemies. there was need for
rebuilding another wall.
This was the wall Of the law. which. separating
the people OF Judah from all other nations. made Of
the Jews a peculiar people and gave to them their
national unity.
The law had been ignored for more than q rem
tury and was all but forgotten by the people.
The 70 years OF exile had been most disastrous TO
the Law OF Moses. During those long years OF associa-
ton with allen people the exiles naturally had &C
quired many Of the habits Of Babylon and ut the
same time lost many OF their own ideals.
Temple worship was impossible and that genera
ton which had never seen the temple lost all inter-
est In the temple. Public study Of the law was al
most impossible and probably its exercise was dan
eerous. Home study OF the written law was neglect
ed and soon suspended.
In many respects, the people of Judah became
similar to the people OF the land in which they lived
as exiles.
A dozen years after the return of Zerubbabel there
were Jews 90 years Of age who had never heard y
public reading Of the law.
To rebuild the broken wall Of the law became the
task Of Ezra. Even before Nehemiah came up from
BABYLON 10 reuuliu ~ Aailcu "aAs VI WAX ~AJ
had come to reestahlish the ceremonial law In the
temple.
Then Ezra passed from the pages OF the story. For
II years there was no written mention OF MS name.
what he was doing during that period is mere con-
lecture: we do not know where he was or how ne was
engaged
But at last he reappeared and began his program
Of educating the people in the law once delivered 70
their fathers.

the assembled people. But the narrow streets OF tns
CITY afforded no adequate meeting place Tor the multi
tude. A fit meeting place was found. however. NJ the
water gate. through which the people brought ~
water from the valley or Gihom. Here the muitituoe
assembled and here Ezra, with IL assistants. spent u
half dav reading clearly and distinctly the written law
OF the Hebrew race.
The results Of this first public reading OF the law
were manifold. The people were stirred to tears
when they remembered their sins and how they mao
forgotten the law Of their God They nastenea 10
renew the covenant into which God had entered with
their fathers, but which had passed from their mem
cries during the years Of exile. :.
From the reading. they acquired q revelation OF
new duties, which they were eager to perform Tney
became eager to hear more Of the law read and ex-
plained. And from this long deferred reading Of the
Mosaic law came a number Of wholesome reforms IN
their local government.
