The Furnace Tower section is rebuilt by "Malchijah son of Harim and Hasshub son of Pahath-moab," continuing the meticulous documentation of builders and their assigned sections. The name "Furnace Tower" suggests this may have been a particularly critical or distinctive defensive position, yet it is no less carefully attended to than other sections. The consistent level of detail applied to all sections regardless of prominence demonstrates Nehemiah's comprehensive vision of restoration and his commitment to equitable distribution of honor and responsibility.
