Nehemiah 13: Let's Read

There is a very simple way to avoid being led astray by the “great talents” of speakers and writers. As valuable as it really can be to learn from people who are good students—it is far more often the case that they are not good (or even honest) students. But they lead the human race down hundreds of paths that only “seem” right (Proverbs 14:12; 16:25). The simple way to avoid all of this is in verse one of this reading. They read the Bible! In this case, they read it out loud to the people. This takes one back to the original purpose of “Let’s Meditate”—which is to encourage you to read your Bible.
