2 Chronicles 3:4
_ _ the porch — The breadth of the house, whose length ran from east to west, is here given as the measure of the length of the piazza. The portico would thus be from thirty to thirty-five feet long, and from fifteen to seventeen and a half feet broad.
_ _ the height was an hundred and twenty cubits — This, taking the cubit at eighteen inches, would be one hundred eighty feet; at twenty-one inches, two hundred ten feet; so that the porch would rise in the form of a tower, or two pyramidal towers, whose united height was one hundred twenty cubits, and each of them about ninety or one hundred five feet high [Stieglitz]. This porch would thus be like the propylaeum or gateway of the palace of Khorsabad [Layard], or at the temple of Edfou. |
2 Chronicles 3:4
The height — This being a kind of turret to the building. |
2 Chronicles 3:4
And the porch that [was] in the front [of the house], the length [of it was] according to the (c) breadth of the house, twenty cubits, and the height [was] an (d) hundred and twenty: and he overlaid it within with pure gold.
(c) It contained as much as the breadth of the temple did, (1 Kings 6:3).
(d) From the foundation to the top: for in the book of the kings mention is made from the foundation to the first stage. |
- the porch:
John 10:23 And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon's porch.
Acts 3:11 And as the lame man which was healed held Peter and John, all the people ran together unto them in the porch that is called Solomon's, greatly wondering.
Acts 5:12 And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people; (and they were all with one accord in Solomon's porch.
|
- an hundred and twenty:
- As the height of the temple was only thirty cubits, 120 seems too great a height for the porch; but the Syriac, Arabic, and the LXX in the codex Alexandrinus, have only twenty, probably reading, instead of maiah weesrim, "one hundred and twenty," ammoth esrim, "twenty cubits;" which brings it within the proportion of the other measures.
