Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the other company of them that gave thanks went over against them,.... On the left hand, on the northern part of the wall:

and I after them; Nehemiah, he brought up the rear of his company, as Ezra led the van of his:

and the half of the people upon the wall; the chief of them, for all could not walk upon it:

from beyond the tower of the furnaces; where they baked their bread, or their bricks, see Nehemiah 3:11,

even unto the broad wall; where the wall was broader than common, for some reason or another, see Nehemiah 3:8.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 38. The broad wall — What part this was, we know not: it might have been a place designed for a public promenade, or a parade for assembling the troops or guard of the temple.
