This 308 page leadership commentary on Nehemiah is part of a series, the Clinton's Leadership Commentary Series. To date, 14 of these commentaries have been done in either eBook or regular book format. These include: 1,2 Timothy; 1,2 Corinthians, Daniel, Philippians, Philemon, John, Titus, Habakkuk, Jonah, Haggai, Obadiah and Nehemiah. Each of the books in the series is a leadership commentary, not an exegetical commentary. That means the text was studied to see what implications for leadership it suggests. For each commentary in the series there is an overview section giving the historical background of the book, its theme, structure, purposes, and leadership topics/lessons. Then there is a commentary section in which the text is commented on with regard to leadership concepts, insights and topics. Many of these concepts or insights introduced in the commentary section are further explained in a section containing leadership articles. The section containing the leadership articles is by far the largest section of each commentary (220 pages in Nehemiah). These leadership articles are practical and usable by leaders in church and mission organizations. Nehemiah occurs in the 4th leadership era-The Post Kingdom Era. Nehemiah is one of the most focused leaders in the Old Testament. And he is an inspirational leader as well. The theme of Nehemiah captures something of his focused leadership: NEHEMIAH'S ORGANIZATIONAL LEADERSHIP was the result of God's initiation, made itself felt in the face of obstacles to rebuild the wall, was inspirational in bringing about reform and a covenant in Jerusalem, and included drastic steps of separation in order to insure an on-going meaningful religious atmosphere.
