This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
A porch of pillars, i.e. supported by divers pillars, for the more magnificent entrance into the house; upon which also it is thought there were other rooms built, as in the house.
The porch, now mentioned, which is said to be
before them, i.e. before the pillars on which the house of Lebanon stood, or before the doors and posts mentioned 1Ki_7:5; or, a porch, i.e. another and a lesser porch, which was before them, i.e. before the pillars of the greater porch now mentioned.
And the other pillars, or, and pillars, i.e. fewer and lesser pillars for the support of the lesser porch.
The thick beam; which was laid upon these pillars, as the others were, 1Ki_7:2.
