Nechemyah 3:21 Meaning and Commentary

Nehemiah 3:21

After him repaired Meremoth the son of Uriah, the son of Koz,
another piece
He had wrought before in another part, ( Nehemiah 3:4 ) , but having finished that, he sets his hand a second time to the work:

from the door of the house of Eliashib, even to the end of the house of
Eliashib;
the door of his house seems to have been at one end of it, and from that end to the other was a considerable length; he being a great man, the high priest, had a large house.
