📚 Contexto Histórico
During the time of Nehemiah, the Jewish people had returned from exile in Babylon and were working to rebuild Jerusalem under Persian rule. A severe famine, or dearth, caused widespread economic hardship, leading some to mortgage their lands, vineyards, and houses just to buy essential food like grain. This situation exposed social injustices within the community, which Nehemiah addressed as a leader seeking to protect the vulnerable.
