Ezekiel46:23

23 And there was a row of building round about in them , round about them four, and it was made with boiling places under the rows round about.

A range of building on the inside of the walls of the lesser Courts, or four ranges answerable to the four sides.

Added lest any should think, the buildings were on the outside of the walls of these Courts.

Four Courts in the four corners.

Places of stone raised on purpose, and framed for the more convenient boiling of that part of the Sacrifice, which was allowed to the Priest, or to the people, to eat before the Lord, and feast with.

These rowes of building were so framed, that the cauldrons and pots were placed under them, 'tis likely, they might be like Cloysters, over which was a roof to cover both the Priest, or Levite Cooks, and the Meats they dress▪ and they were either open as a Cloyster, or had windowes, out of which the smoke of the fire, or steam of the Meat passed.
