In addition, he rebuilt the wall of the Pool of Siloam, 1 by the royal garden, as far as the steps that go down from the City of David.
Nehemiah 8:16
Context8:16 So the people went out and brought these things 2 back and constructed temporary shelters for themselves, each on his roof and in his courtyard and in the courtyards of the temple 3 of God and in the plaza of the Water Gate and the plaza of the Ephraim Gate.
1 tn The Hebrew word translated “Siloam” is הַשֶּׁלַח (hashelakh, “water-channel”; cf. ASV, NASB, NRSV, TEV, CEV “Shelah”). It apparently refers to the Pool of Siloam whose water supply came from the Gihon Spring via Hezekiah’s Tunnel built in 701
2 tn The words “these things” are not in the Hebrew text but have been supplied in the translation for clarity.
3 tn Heb “the house.”
