Gill's Notes on the Bible

Moreover Uzziah built towers in Jerusalem at the corner gate,.... Which was broken down by the king of Israel in his father's time, 2 Chronicles 25:23 and which he not only repaired, but strengthened, by building a tower upon it:

and at the valley gate; which led to the valley, Nehemiah 2:13, called the valley of the dead bodies, in which they were cast, and in which the brook Kidron ran, Jeremiah 31:40

and at the turning of the wall; at each of those places he built towers, which Josephus o says were one hundred and fifty cubits high: and fortified them; put garrisons of soldiers into them.

o Antiqu. l. 9. c. 10. sect. 3.
