Ezekiel 46:23

23 and a wall by compass went about (the) four little foreyards; and kitchens were made under the porches by compass. (and a wall went all around the four smaller courtyards; and kitchens were made against the porches all around.)

Ezekiel 46:23 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 46:23

And there was a row of building round about in them
Within the courts, not on the outside of them: these were either chambers to eat the sacrifices in when boiled; or they were sheds which covered the cooks, and the meat they were boiling, from the rain: the Targum renders it,

``and walls were made to them round about;''

to the court: and so Jarchi and Kimchi interpret this row of building of a stone wall: round about them four;
the four courts at the four corners: and it was made with boiling places under the rows round about;
under these rows of building, chambers or sheds; or under these stone walls were furnaces, and coppers, and caldrons, set on them, for the boiling of the sacrifices.

Ezekiel 46:23 In-Context

21 And he led me out into the outermore foreyard, and led me about by the four corners of the foreyard; and lo! a little foreyard was in the corner of the foreyard, all little foreyards by the corners of the foreyard; (And he led me out into the outer courtyard, and led me about by the four corners of the courtyard; and lo! in each corner of the courtyard was a smaller courtyard;)

22 in four corners of the foreyard little foreyards were disposed, of forty cubits by length, and of thirty by breadth; four were of one measure; (yea, in the four corners of the courtyard were placed smaller courtyards, that were forty cubits in length, and thirty cubits in breadth; all four had the same measurements;)

23 and a wall by compass went about (the) four little foreyards; and kitchens were made under the porches by compass. (and a wall went all around the four smaller courtyards; and kitchens were made against the porches all around.)

24 And he said to me, This is the house of (the) kitchens, in which the ministers of the house of the Lord shall seethe the sacrifice of the people. (And he said to me, These are the kitchens for the Temple, in which the ministers, or the servants, of the House of the Lord shall boil the people's sacrifices.)
