Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 14. - The dung gate. See the comment on Nehemiah 2:13. The ruler of part of Beth-haccerem. Rather "ruler of the district of Beth-haccerem," or head man of the region within which Beth-haccerem, was situated. This was a district in the neighbourhood of Tekoah (Jeremiah 6:1).

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(14) The son of Rechab.--Not "a son," as if it meant that he was a Rechabite.Part of Beth-haccerem.--The district around that place.
