This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
A row of building; a range of building on the inside of the walls of the lesser courts, or four ranges answerable to the four sides.
Round about in them; added, lest any should think the buildings were on the outside of the walls of these courts.
Four; four courts in the four corners.
Boiling places; 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.
Under the rows: these rows of building were so framed, that the caldrons and pots were placed under them; it is likely they might be like cloisters, 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 cloister, or had windows, out of which the smoke of the fire or steam of the meat passed.
