Ezekiel 40:41 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 40:41

Four tables were on this side, and four tables were on that
side, by the side of the gate
These are the same tables repeated, to observe more diligently the situation and use of them; there were four on the right hand, two between the little chambers in the porch, and two on the outside of the inmost gate; and there were four on the left hand, two between the little chambers there, and two on the other side of the said gate: eight tables, whereupon they slew their sacrifices;
the four tables last mentioned were for the same use as the four first; (See Gill on Ezekiel 40:39).

Ezekiel 40:41 In-Context

39 In this entrance room there were four tables, two on each side of the room. It was on these tables that they killed the animals to be offered as sacrifices, either to be burned whole or to be sacrifices for sin or as repayment offerings.

40 Outside the room there were four similar tables, two on either side of the entrance of the north gate.

41 Altogether there were eight tables on which the animals to be sacrificed were killed: four inside the room and four out in the courtyard.

42 The four tables in the annex, used to prepare the offerings to be burned whole, were of cut stone. They were 20 inches high, and their tops were 30 inches square. All the equipment used in killing the sacrificial animals was kept on these tables.

43 Ledges 3 inches wide ran around the edge of the tables. All the meat to be offered in sacrifice was placed on the tables.
