Matthew Poole and continuators on Nehemiah 12:31

31 Then I brought up the princes of Judah upon the wall , and appointed two great companies of them that gave thanks, whereof one went on the right hand upon the wall toward the dung-gate:

And half of the people with them, as it is expressed afterwards, v. 38.

For the Wall was broad and strong, and so ordered that Men might conveniently walk upon it, as at this day it is in many Cities.

Towards the South and East.
