Nehemiah 3:23
"After him repaired Benjamin and Hashub over against their house. After him repaired Azariah the son of Maaseiah the son of Ananiah by his house."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

After him,.... The last of the priests before mentioned: repaired Benjamin, and Hashub, over against their house; as much of the wall as the length of their house, or houses,

were: after him repaired Azariah the son of Maaseiah, the son of Ananiah, by his house: as far as that reached.
