At the end of nehemiah 9, the leaders of the people sign a "binding agreement" with God. This was a covenant promise which is more than a contract. A contract has conditions - "I'll do this if you do that, and if you don't do that then I don't have to do my part either". A covenant says "This is what I'm going to do. No matter what happens". It's a big deal that the people are signing this document making a covenant with God - am I in no matter what happens? Or will I drop out if I feel God isn't doing what I think He should be?
