When the feast of booths happened, the whole city changed.  It was probably impossible not to be caught up in the excitement of the all the celebrations, music, and feasting.  When the word of God became central, when obedience to the word became normative, that is when the real transformation took place.  Rebuilding the wall may have helped protect them, but it was merely symbolic to the actual rebuilding of lives that was happening in the city.  All because of the Word, all because of a people who submitted themselves to the ways of God more than their fleshly desires.  Why not here?  Why not now?  Why not this community.  If we will turn to the Word of God, it will create a wave of redemption that will be impossible to resist full of healing and peace.

Momentum = mass x velocity
