The ancient city of Jebus , taken by David from the Jebusites , was not large , and stood on a mountain south of that on which the temple was erected. Here David built a new city , called the city of David , wherein was the royal palace. Between these two mountains lay the valley of Millo , filled up by David and Solomon; and after the reign of Manasseh , another city is mentioned , called the second. The Maccabees considerably enlarged Jerusalem on the north , enclosing a third hill; and Josephus mentions a fourth hill , called Bezetha , which Agrippa joined to the former . this new city lay north of the temple , along the brook Kidron.
