The name means "left over" or "remnant," which is fitting given the context of the return from exile. Ater is mentioned in <a href="/ezra/2-16.htm">Ezra 2:16</a> and <a href="/nehemiah/7-21.htm">Nehemiah 7:21</a> as part of the group that returned to Jerusalem under Zerubbabel. This highlights the fulfillment of God's promise to bring His people back to their land, as prophesied in <a href="/jeremiah/29-10.htm">Jeremiah 29:10-14</a>. The inclusion of Ater in the covenant renewal in <a href="/nehemiah/10.htm">Nehemiah 10</a> signifies the commitment of the remnant to uphold the Law and restore proper worship in Jerusalem.<p><b>Hezekiah</b><br>Hezekiah, in this context, is likely a different individual from the well-known King Hezekiah of Judah. The name means "Yahweh strengthens," which reflects a common theme in the post-exilic community's reliance on God's strength to rebuild their nation. The presence of a Hezekiah in this list underscores the continuity of faith and leadership among the Israelites, even after the exile. It also serves as a reminder of the historical Hezekiah's reforms and dedication to God, as seen in <a href="/2_kings/18.htm">2 Kings 18-20</a>, which set a precedent for the spiritual renewal efforts in Nehemiah's time.<p><b>Azzur</b><br>Azzur is another name found in the genealogical records of the Bible, meaning "helper" or "one who assists." This name appears in various contexts, including a false prophet in <a href="/jeremiah/28.htm">Jeremiah 28:1</a> and a leader in the post-exilic community. The mention of Azzur in <a href="/nehemiah/10.htm">Nehemiah 10</a> indicates the involvement of various families and leaders in the covenant renewal process. It highlights the collective responsibility and unity among the Israelites to adhere to God's commandments and rebuild their society according to His laws. This communal effort reflects the broader biblical theme of God's people working together to fulfill His purposes, as seen in the rebuilding of the temple and the walls of Jerusalem.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/n/nehemiah.htm">Nehemiah</a></b><br>The governor of Judah who led the rebuilding of Jerusalem's walls and initiated spiritual reforms among the people.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_levites.htm">The Levites</a></b><br>A group of Israelites set apart for religious duties, including teaching the Law and leading worship.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_covenant_renewal.htm">The Covenant Renewal</a></b><br>The event where the Israelites, under Nehemiah's leadership, renewed their covenant with God, committing to follow His laws and commands.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/c/commitment_to_god's_word.htm">Commitment to God's Word</a></b><br>The renewal of the covenant in <a href="/bsb/nehemiah/10.htm">Nehemiah 10</a> demonstrates the importance of committing to God's Word and living according to His statutes.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/c/community_accountability.htm">Community Accountability</a></b><br>The collective agreement to follow God's laws shows the power of community accountability in spiritual growth and obedience.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/t/the_role_of_leadership.htm">The Role of Leadership</a></b><br>Nehemiah's leadership in guiding the people back to God underscores the critical role of godly leaders in fostering spiritual renewal.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/t/the_importance_of_repentance.htm">The Importance of Repentance</a></b><br>The covenant renewal was an act of repentance, reminding us of the need to continually turn back to God and seek His forgiveness.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/f/faithfulness_in_worship.htm">Faithfulness in Worship</a></b><br>The involvement of the Levites highlights the importance of faithful worship and the role of spiritual leaders in guiding worship practices.<div class="vheading2">Lists and Questions</div><a href="/top10/lessons_from_nehemiah_10.htm">Top 10 Lessons from Nehemiah 10</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/who_believed_in_the_old_testament.htm">Who were the believers in the Old Testament?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/could_a_community_fully_uphold_neh._10_oaths.htm">How plausible is it that an entire community could commit to all the oath requirements in Nehemiah 10 without internal dissent or violation?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/what_are_the_walls_of_jerusalem.htm">What are the Walls of Jerusalem?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/what's_a_church_benediction_for.htm">What does the Bible say about intimidation?</a><a name="commentary" id="commentary"></a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="versiontext"><a href="/commentaries/nehemiah/10-17.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a></span><span class="p"><br /><br /><br /></span><a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div><span class="word">Ater,</span><br /><span class="heb">אָטֵ֥ר</span> <span class="translit">(’ā·ṭêr)</span><br /><span class="parse">Noun -
