Nehemiah 3:27
"After them the Tekoites repaired another piece, over against the great tower that lieth out, even unto the wall of Ophel."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

After them the Tekoites repaired another piece,.... Having finished what they undertook in another part of the wall, Neh 3:5 , they engage in this part of it; which shows

their great zeal and diligence, when their nobles were so backward to it, and withdrew from it: over against the great tower that lieth out; the same as in the preceding verse: even unto the wall of Ophel; from right against the great tower unto the wall the Tekoites repaired.
