The Broad Wall (Hebrew: החומה הרחבה HaChoma HaRechava) is an ancient defensive wall, located in the Jewish Quarter of Jerusalem's Old City. The wall was unearthed in the 1970s by Israeli archaeologist Nahman Avigad and dated to the reign of King Hezekiah (late eighth century BCE). The Broad Wall is a massive defensive structure, seven meters thick. The unbroken length of wall uncovered by Avigad's dig runs 65 metres (71.1 yd) long and is preserved in places to a height of 3.3 metres (3.6 yd).

  • 宽墙（英语：Broad Wall）是耶路撒冷老城内的一堵古代防御墙。宽墙于1970年代由以色列建筑师Nahman Avigad发掘，其年代可追溯到希西家在位期间（公元前8世纪末）。 宽墙是一个巨大的防御性结构，厚达7米。挖掘出来的长度65米，最高达3.3米。 修筑宽墙的动机是防备辛那赫里布的入侵。宽墙在尼希米记 3:8 和 以赛亚书 22:9–10提及。 (zh)

  • The Broad Wall (Hebrew: החומה הרחבה HaChoma HaRechava) is an ancient defensive wall, located in the Jewish Quarter of Jerusalem's Old City. The wall was unearthed in the 1970s by Israeli archaeologist Nahman Avigad and dated to the reign of King Hezekiah (late eighth century BCE). The Broad Wall is a massive defensive structure, seven meters thick. The unbroken length of wall uncovered by Avigad's dig runs 65 metres (71.1 yd) long and is preserved in places to a height of 3.3 metres (3.6 yd). It was long believed that the city in this period was confined to the fortified, narrow hill running to the south of the Temple Mount known as the City of David. Avigad's dig demonstrated that by the late eighth century the city had expanded to include the hill to the west of the Temple Mount. The motivation for building the walls is believed to be Sennacherib's campaign in Judah. The wall might be referred to in Nehemiah 3:8 and Isaiah 22:9–10. (en)
