Peter (narrator): So, the Bible chapter we're talking about today is Nehemiah 1. Lois: What's it about? Peter: Well, it's about a guy named Nehemiah who hears news of how the walls of Jerusalem are in ruins and he's pretty bummed out about it. →

Peter: Alright, so, the Bible chapter for today is Nehemiah 2. Lois: Ooh, what's it about? Peter: Well, it's about Nehemiah going to the king and asking permission to rebuild the wall of Jerusalem. The king grants him permission, and supplies him with a bunch of materials. →

Peter: Alright, so Nehemiah 3... uh, according to the Bible, after Nehemiah rebuilt the walls of Jerusalem, the people started to build the gates. And I think it's really cool that... Cleveland: Wait, wait, wait. →

Peter: Alright, so for Nehemiah 4, things are getting dicey. Sanballat and Tobiah are tryin' to keep the Israelites from rebuilding the wall and they're getting violent. Lois: That's terrible! Peter: Yeah, it is. →

Peter: Alright, so in Nehemiah 5, we have Nehemiah addressing the people about their mistreatment of the poor. He calls them out on their unjust practices, like charging interest and taking food and clothing. →

Peter: Alright, so Nehemiah 6 starts with Sanballat and Geshem trying to get Nehemiah to come down from the walls and meet with them, but Nehemiah won't do it. Lois: Then Nehemiah gets a letter saying that the people are plotting to kill him, but Nehemiah isn't scared and he keeps working. →

Peter: Alright, so in Nehemiah 7, Nehemiah appoints a bunch of people to be in charge of Jerusalem. And it's like, what up, Nehemiah? You the man! Lois: Peter, that's not funny. Peter: Wait, it gets better. →

Peter: Alright, so this Nehemiah 8 is about a big festival in Jerusalem. Lois: Yeah, all the people came from far and wide to celebrate the completion of the wall. Brian: Wait, they had a wall around the city? Like, a Wall-E kind of wall? →

Peter: Alright, so this is Nehemiah 9. So, uh, the Israelites confessed their sins and God's greatness, and praised him for being so merciful and forgiving. Lois: Oh wow, that sounds really nice. Stewie: Yeah, but then they started talking about how they had disobeyed God's commands, and how they had been taken into captivity because of their sins. →

Brian: Alright, so here's the summary of Nehemiah 10: Stewie: Wait, we're summarizing the Bible now? Brian: Yeah, we were just talking about how boring it is to read the Bible, so we figured we'd liven it up a bit. →

Peter: Alright, so Nehemiah 11 is all about how the people of Israel, who had recently returned from captivity in Babylon, went and settled in Jerusalem. Lois: Well, that is a rather boring summary, Peter. →

Peter: Alright, so Nehemiah chapter 12. Stewie, what’s it about? Stewie: Oh, you know, the usual. Priests and Levites, their genealogy and whatnot. Oh, and there’s a big festival to celebrate the completion of the walls. →

Peter: Alright, so in Nehemiah 13, Nehemiah finds out that the Jews have been buying and selling on the Sabbath. He gets really mad and confronts them about it, telling them that it's a sin. Lois: So, he yells at them and then what happens? →
