“And at the fountain gate, which was over against them,.... Of which see Neh 2:14 and which was to the south of the dung gate: they went up; that is, one of the two companies, that which took to the right on the wall, Neh 12:31 with which these words are to be connected: by the stairs of the city of David; which went up to the city of Zion, built on an eminence: at the going up of the wall, above the house of David; where the wall was higher, and there was an ascent to it: even unto the water gate eastward; of which see Neh 3:26 turning from the south to the east, and so drew nigh the temple.”

The in-app commentary runs from the Fathers to the early-modern record, then stops — that's where the public-domain sources end, not where the reading does. For the modern reading, follow the sources directly.
