John Trapp on Nehemiah 2:14

Verſe 14. Then I went to the Gate of the Fountain] Or Well-gate; where was great plenty of Water-ponds, Watering-places, &c. Junius ſaith it was that, whereby men went out to the pool of Siloah, and Rogel.

And to the Kings-pool] The Water-courſe made (or repayred at leaſt) by King Hezekiah, 2 King. 20.20.

But there was no place for the beaſt, &c.] There was ſo much rubbiſh, and ſuch ruines: This was the fruit of ſin, which makes of a City an heap, (as the Prophet ſpeakes) and hurleth ſuch confuſion over the World, that had not Chriſt (our true Nehemiah) undertaken the ſhattered condition thereof to uphold it, it had ſurely fallen about Adams ears.
