Matthew Poole and continuators on Ezekiel 41:25

25 And there were made on them , on the doors of the temple , cherubims and palm-trees, like as were made upon the walls: and there were thick planks upon the face of the porch without?

Carved.

The doors of both Temple and Oracle.

Including the Holy of Holies also.

Vid. ver. 10.

I suppose, these were boards of more, then ordinary thickness, which were fastned to the great Beams, whose ends came out beyond the wall of the Porch, and probably, were laid so, as to make a part of an arch over the entrance into the Gate, as we see over some houses, and as sometimes under the Belconies, and here also in these thicker planks, 'tis like, were some Ornaments.

Or above the front of the Porch.

On the Court side of the Porch, that part that look'd outward.
