Bible Verse Review

the: Nehemiah 3:26, Nehemiah 3:31, 2 Chronicles 27:3

Ophel: or, the tower

Reciprocal: 1 Chronicles 9:2 - the Nethinims

Gill's Notes on the Bible

But the Nethinims dwelt in Ophel,.... An high place or tower on the wall of Jerusalem, see 2 Chronicles 27:3,

and Ziha, and Gispa, were over the Nethinims; had the oversight of them, and took care that they did their work; they were such themselves, but the principal of them, see Ezra 2:43.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Ophel, the southern spur of the temple hill, having a wall of its own Nehemiah 3:27 might be reckoned either in Jerusalem or outside it. Here it is made a separate place.
