Nehemiah 13:31

31 I also provided for the wood offering at appointed times as well as for the early produce. Remember me, my God, for good.

Nehemiah 13:31 Meaning and Commentary

Nehemiah 13:31

And for the wood offering, at times appointed
Of which see ( Nehemiah 10:34 ) . Levites were appointed to receive the wood that was brought at the times and by the persons fixed, and lay it up in its proper place, and carry it to the altar when wanted:

and for the first fruits;
to receive and take care of them, and distribute them to the persons to whom they belonged:

remember me, O my God, for good;
to bless him with all good things, temporal and spiritual, to keep him faithful, to make him useful in church and state, and protect him from all his enemies: or rather this may respect what goes before, that as to the wood offering and the firstfruits, that God would graciously remember him as to them, since the one was as necessary to the altar as the other was to those that minister at it.

Nehemiah 13:31 In-Context

29 Remember them, my God, because they have defiled the priesthood and the covenant of the priests and the Levites!
30 So I purified them of everything foreign and established the services of the priests and Levites with specific duties for each person.
31 I also provided for the wood offering at appointed times as well as for the early produce. Remember me, my God, for good.
