The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from King James Bible: governor in the land of Judah, from the twentieth year even unto the two
and thirtieth year of Artaxerxes the king, that is, twelve years, I and
my brethren have not eaten the bread of the governor.
NEH 5:15 But the former governors that had been before me were
chargeable unto the people, and had taken of them bread and wine, beside
forty shekels of silver; yea, even their servants bare rule over the
people: but so did not I, because of the fear of God.
NEH 5:16 Yea, also I continued in the work of this wall, neither bought
we any land: and all my servants were gathered thither unto the work.
NEH 5:17 Moreover there were at my table an hundred and fifty of the
Jews and rulers, beside those that came unto us from among the heathen
