Neh 10:30

“And that we would not give our daughters unto the people of the land, nor take their daughters for our sons,.... Intermarry with them as they had done, and were prone to do, and even did after this, Neh 13:23. . Nehemiah 10:31 neh 10:31 neh 10:31 neh 10:31And if the people of the land bring ware,.... Any thing to be sold, any sort of goods, that being sold might be taken away, as the word signifies: or any victuals on the sabbath day to sell; anything to make food of; wheat or barley, as Aben Ezra interprets it; the same word is rendered corn; see Gill on Gen 42:1; to sell which was not lawful on the sabbath day, see Amo 8:5 that we would not buy it of them on the sabbath, or on the holy day; any festival, as the feast of the passover, pentecost, and tabernacles: and that we would leave the seventh year: the ground untilled in that year, the vines unpruned, and the fruits of the earth, which sprung of themselves, for the poor to gather, Lev 25:4, and the exaction of every debt; that they would not demand the payment of any debt on the seventh year, as the law required they should not, Deu 15:2.”
