Gill's Notes on the Bible

We have dealt very corruptly against thee,.... Corrupted his covenant, laws, and precepts, as well as themselves, ways, and works; all which were against the Lord, contrary to his nature, mind, and will:

and have not kept the commandments, nor the statutes, nor the judgments, which thou commandedst thy servant Moses; the laws, moral, ceremonial, and judicial.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Nehemiah 1:7. Have not kept thy commandments — The moral precepts by which our lives should be regulated.

Statutes — What refers to the rites and ceremonies of thy religion.

Judgments — The precepts of justice relative to our conduct to each other.
