unity

Nehemiah, in the book of the same name, is rebuilding the wall of Jerusalem. He has God's favor. He rallied the people and work began. But was there unity? Neh 3:5 gives us a glimpse of that "The next section was repaired by the men of Tekoa, buttheir nobles would not put their shoulders to the work under their supervisors". I am glad that they show that even when moving under God's direction everything is not unicorns and rainbows.
