Nehemiah 1:8

Thy servant Moses - See the parallel places in Leviticus 26:33 ; (note), Deuteronomy 4:25-27 ; (note), Deuteronomy 28:64 ; (note), and the notes there. Though in an enemy's country, and far from the ordinances of God, Nehemiah did not forget the law: he read his Bible well, and quotes correctly.
