This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

All the land shall be turned as a plain - Or rather, “He shall encompass the whole land as a plain.” He shall cast his defence all around it; from Geba, in Benjamin, north of Jerusalem, (Jos 21:17), to Rimmon in Judah, to the south of Jerusalem, Jos 15:32.

It shall be lifted up - The city shall be exalted.

And inhabited in her place - Jerusalem, shall be rebuilt In the very place in which it originally stood. From Benjamin’s gate, which was probably on the north side of Jerusalem, unto the place of the first gate, supposed to be that called the old gate, Neh 3:6; Neh 12:39, placed by Lightfoot towards the southwest.

Unto the corner gate - See 2Ki 14:13.

The tower of Hananeel - This tower and the corner gate seem to be placed as two extremities of the city.

Unto the king’s wine-presses - Near to the king’s gardens, southward. - See Newcome.
