A large part of these articles were used in the book Prophets and Kings, among the chapters that relate to Nehemiah and the work of building Jerusalem. However, there are paragraphs here and there that were omitted due to their particular application to the church, and some of the sentences were reworked.
These original articles were divided into more sections, thus making for smaller chapters. This makes them more readily accessible for family reading.
I have made an addition to the text by adding in relevant Bible verses, where they were referred to by Ellen White, but were not directly quoted. No doubt she was restrained by the need to keep periodical articles relatively short. Hopefully this will make it a bit more complete.
These articles provide a nice, succinct account of the reform accomplished by Nehemiah, and the lessons it has for us today. 90p
