Nehemiah 3:16

Ver. 16. After him repaired Nehemiah the son of Azbuk, the ruler of the half part of Bethzur. A strong fortified place in the tribe of Judah, Jos 15:58,

unto the place over against the sepulchres of David; where he and his family, and the kings of his race, were buried, which remained to this time untouched by the Babylonians, and to many ages after; see Ac 2:29

and to the pool that was made; not a natural, but an artificial one, which was made by Hezekiah, 2Ki 20:20,

and unto the house of the mighty; where was a garrison of soldiers in former time for defence.
