#### How does the Book of Nehemiah use the term "Israel"? ####
The Book of Nehemiah uses the term "Israel" to refer to the kingdom of Judah. This kingdom was mostly made up of the tribes of Judah and Benjamin. The other ten tribes had ended their loyalty to any kings descended from David. God allowed the Assyrians to conquer the other ten tribes and take them into exile. As a result, they mixed with other people groups and did not return to the land of Israel. (See: [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/israel]])
