Summarize this article for a 10 year old
Nehemiah 10 is the tenth chapter of the Book of Nehemiah in the Old Testament of the Christian Bible,[1] or the 20th chapter of the book of Ezra-Nehemiah in the Hebrew Bible, which treats the book of Ezra and the book of Nehemiah as one book.[2] Jewish tradition states that Ezra is the author of Ezra-Nehemiah as well as the Books of Chronicles,[3] but modern scholars generally accept that a compiler from the 5th century BCE known as The Chronicler is the final author of these books.[4] The chapter contains the list of signatories to the people's pledge and the later part deals with intermarriage with the non-Jews among the "people of the land" (parallel to Ezra 10) punctuated with the pledge to separate from "foreigners".[5]
