Somebody asked me today if the walls of Jerusalem today are the same as they were when Babylon destroyed the Temple. Not exactly... Here is a drawing showing 8 versions of the city walls and there are other variations that are not included. Notice in diagram one that the original city, called Salem and later called the Jebusite city was entirely outside of the walls as they exist today. The shaded areas represent the variations of the walls.
