Malchiah<\/em> ] R.V. Malchijah.<\/strong> It is the same spelling as the ‘Malchijah’ in Neh 3:11<\/span>. ‘the son of Rechab.’ Not necessarily a Rechabite. The Rechabites were forbidden to dwell in houses (Jer 35:7<\/span>).<\/p>\n of part of Beth-haccerem<\/em> ] R.V. of the district of Beth-haccherem.<\/strong> Beth-haccherem (the house of the vineyard) is mentioned in Jer 6:1<\/span>. It seems to have been due S. of Jerusalem, between Bethlehem and Tekoa. It is frequently identified with a well-known spot 6 or 7 miles S. of Jerusalem, the Frank Mountain (Arab. Jebel Ferdis<\/em> = Hill of Paradise or Orchard), where are to be seen the remains of the Herodium, the castle built by Herod the Great. It is called ‘the Frank Mountain’ because tradition connects it with the stubborn resistance of the Crusaders against the Moslems. It commands one of the most beautiful views over the Dead Sea to be obtained near Jerusalem.<\/p>\n doors thereof<\/em>, &c.] Cf. note on Neh 3:3<\/span>.<\/p>\n Verse 14. Beth-haccerem<\/B><\/I>] A village or town in the tribe of Benjamin.

If this was one of the Rechabites, they were forbid to build houses,<\/p>\n Jer 35:7<\/span> but, perhaps, though they might not build private houses for themselves to dwell in, they might be employed in building walls and fortresses for public security; though it is more probable that this man was not of that family:<\/p>\n the ruler of part of Bethhaccerem<\/strong>; or of the tract of Bethhaccerem, a place between Tekoah and Jerusalem; see Jer 6:1<\/span>,<\/p>\n he built it, and set up the doors thereof<\/strong>; &c. as in Ne 3:3<\/span>.<\/p>\n (14) The son of Rechab.<\/strong>N<\/strong>ot a son, as if it meant that he was a Rechabite.<\/p>\n Part of Beth-haccerem.<\/strong>The district around that place.<\/p>\n 14<\/strong>. <\/strong> Part of Beth-haccerem <\/strong> Or, district of Beth-haccerem. <\/em> Comp. note on Neh 3:9<\/span>. This city, which, like Jerusalem and some other cities, (comp. Neh 3:15-16<\/span>,) had its surrounding districts with dependent towns, is mentioned also in Jer 6:1<\/span>. It seems to have been situated not far from Tekoah, (Neh 3:5<\/span>,) south of Jerusalem, but its exact site is not determined.<\/p>\n ‘And Malchijah, the son of Rechab, the ruler of the district of Beth-haccherem, repaired the Dung Gate. He built it, and set up its doors its bolts and its bars.’<\/p>\n The Dung Gate itself was repaired by a second Malchijah, who was the son of Rechab, and was ruler of the district of Beth-haccherem. He and his helpers rebuilt the whole gatehouse, making it ready to receive the doors, bars and bolts which were later put in place. It must be seen as possible that the short length of wall between the Dung Gate and the Fountain Gate, going round the southernmost point, had been left standing, thus not requiring repair.<\/p>\n Neh 3:14 But the dung gate repaired Malchiah the son of Rechab, the ruler of part of Bethhaccerem; he built it, and set up the doors thereof, the locks thereof, and the bars thereof.<\/p>\n Ver. 14. But the dung gate repaired Malchiah the son of Rechab<\/strong> ] That is, of the noble family of the Rechabites. A ruler he was, and yet disdaineth not to repair the dung gate. All God’s work is honourable. Angels are God’s executioners, as at Sodom. Magistrates and ministers must do their utmost, by discipline and otherwise, to cause the false prophets (that filth) and the unclean spirit to pass out of the land, as by a dung gate, Zec 13:2<\/span> . Every man must sweep his own door, that we may have a clean street.<\/p>\n NASB (UPDATED) TEXT: Neh 3:14<\/p>\n 14Malchijah the son of Rechab, the official of the district of Beth-haccherem repaired the Refuse Gate. He built it and hung its doors with its bolts and its bars.<\/p>\n Neh 3:14 the district of Beth-haccherem This was a village close to Tekoa. The name itself (BDB 11) means house of vineyard. It is also mentioned in Jer 6:1, where it is a height to watch for fires about six miles south of Jerusalem. Some commentators think it was the residence of the Persian governor (NIV Study Bible footnote, p. 698).<\/p>\n Beth-haccerern = house of the vineyards (Jer 6:1): not identified yet. Perhaps ‘Ain Karim. <\/p>\n the dung gate: Neh 2:13, Neh 12:31 <\/p>\n the ruler: Neh 3:9, Neh 3:12, Neh 3:15-18 <\/p>\n Bethhaccerem: Beth-haccerem was a town of Judah, situated on a mountain, between Jerusalem and Tekoa, according to Jerome on Jer. 6. Dr. Pococke conjectures that the Mountain of the Franks, called also the Mount of Bethulia, from a village of that name near it, west-north-west of Tekoa, is the ancient Beth-haccerem; the position of which seems to agree with the citadel of Herodium, built by Herod, on a moderate-sized hill, sixty furlongs from Jerusalem.
