John Trapp on Nehemiah 3:11

Verſe 11. The ſonne of Pahath-Moab] This man might be a Moabite by ſtock or deſcent, and an Iſraelite by Religion: like as Jether was by nature an Iſmaelite, 1 Chron. 7.17. but by his faith an Iſraelite, 2 Sam. 17.25.

And the tower of the fornaces] That had fornaces or ovens under it: like as the library at Bonony hath a victualling-houſe, and a wine-cellar. In commendation of which ſituation Cardinal Bobba conceited that he had very wittily (indeed wickedly) applied that text, Prov. 9.1, 2. Wiſdome hath builded her houſe, ſhe hath alſo mingled her wine, ſhe hath alſo furniſhed her table.
