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).
