Scripture:Nehemiah 8:1-3(NASB)
1And all the people gathered as one man at the square which was in front of the Water Gate, and theyasked Ezra the scribe to bring the book of the law of Moses which the LORDhad given to Israel. 2Then Ezra the priest brought the law before the assembly of men, women and all who couldlisten with understanding, on the first day of the seventh month. 3He read from it before the square which was in front of the Water Gate from early morning until midday, in the presence of men and women, those who could understand; and all the people were attentive to the book of the law.
