Reformed 1771 · An Exposition of the Old and New Testament, Nehemiah 3:27

John Gill, on Neh 3:27

John Gill · 1697–1771
Neh 3:27 · Douay-Rheims
“After him the Thecuites built another measure over against, from the great tower that standeth out unto the wall of the temple.”
On this verse:
“After them repaired Zadok the son of Immer, over against his house,.... After the last of the priests, this begun where they ended, and repaired as far as his house reached; and being, perhaps, a person of some note, his house might be a large one: after him repaired also Shemaiah, the son of Shechaniah, the keeper of the east gate; that is, of the temple; for the gates of the city having been burnt so long, it cannot be thought there should be a keeper of any of them.”
