Ezekiel 46:22 (King James Version)
In the four corners of the court there were courts joined of forty cubits long and thirty broad: these four corners were of one measure.
- courts
- These courts in the corners of the outer court, or court of the people, appear to have been a kind of uncovered apartments, surrounded with little chambers for the cooks, and used for dressing the peace offerings of the people. On these their families and friends feasted; and portions were sent to the poor, the widow, and the orphan; and thus the spirit of devotion preserved the spirit of mercy, charity, and benevolence, in the land.
- joined
- or, made with chimneys. corners. Hebrew cornered.
