16<\/strong>. To Shuppim and Hosah<\/em> ] Read, To Hosah<\/strong>. The word “Shuppim” (LXX. B, ) seems to be an accidental repetition (in a corrupt form) of “Asuppim” (1Ch 26:15<\/span>), and so should be omitted from the text.<\/p>\n Hosah going up<\/em> ] R.V. Hosah westward, by the gate of Shallecheth<\/strong> (mg. “casting forth”), at the causeway that goeth up<\/strong>. There is no other mention in the Bible of a gate “Shallecheth,” but it is perhaps to be identified with “the entering in of the house of the Lord which was in the precincts” (“Parvrim” Heb.<\/em>) mentioned 2Ki 23:11<\/span>; cp. note on 1Ch 26:18<\/span>. “The causeway” led up to the Temple either<\/em> from Ophel (on the S.) or<\/em> from the Western City (across the Tyropon Valley). Traces of two causeways have been discovered by excavation, viz., “Wilson’s Arch” ( Bdeker<\/em>, p. 57) and “Robinson’s Arch” ( ib.<\/em> p. 59). The second of these arches probably marks the site of a causeway belonging to the period of the Kings.<\/p>\n All recent commentators seem to be agreed that the words to Shuppim ought to be cancelled, the name having arisen from an accidental repetition of the preceding word, Asuppim.<\/P> The gate Shallecheth – <\/B>literally, the gate of projection – the gate, i. e., through which were thrown out the sweepings of the temple, the ashes, the offal of the victims, and the like.<\/P> The causeway of the going up – <\/B>Compare the marginal reference note.<\/P> Ward against ward – <\/B>Or, watch opposite to watch. Hosah had in charge both the western gate of the temple, and also the gate Shallecheth, which was in the outer wall, opposite. Hence, he had to keep two watches, one over against the other.<\/P><\/p>\n Verse 16<\/span>. The gate Shallecheth<\/B><\/I>] The gate of the projections<\/I>: probably that through which all the offal of the temple was carried out.<\/P> <\/p>\n Shuppim and Hosah<\/B> for some reason were joined together in the custody of that gate. <\/P> The gate Shallecheth; <\/B>a gate of the court so called, as some think, because the ashes and filth of the temple were cast out on that side, which was the most convenient gate for that purpose, because that was a private quarter, the great ways to the temple lying on the other sides. <\/P> By the causeway of the going up; <\/B>by which causeway they went up towards the temple. <\/P> Ward against ward; <\/B>which may respect either, <\/P> 1. The time of their watching, that when one guard went off another came on. Or rather, <\/P> 2. The place of their guard; and so this may be understood, either, <\/P> 1. Of this western quarter, where there was a double guard, either because there were two gates there, as some think, or for some other cause now unknown. Or rather, <\/P> 2. Of all the quarters compared together; of all which having spoken he adds this, that as one gate was over against another, the west against the east, and the north against the south, so one ward was over against another. <\/P> <\/p>\n 16. the gate Shallecheth<\/B>probablythe rubbish gate, through which all the accumulated filth andsweepings of the temple and its courts were poured out. <\/P> by the causeway of the goingup<\/B>probably the ascending road which was cast up or raised fromthe deep valley between Mount Zion and Moriah, for the royal egressto the place of worship (2Ch 9:4<\/span>).<\/P> ward against ward<\/B>Somerefer these words to Shuppim and Hosah, whose duty it was to watchboth the western gate and the gate Shallecheth, which was opposite,while others take it as a general statement applicable to all theguards, and intended to intimate that they were posted at regulardistances from each other, or that they all mounted and relievedguard at the same time in uniform order.<\/P><\/p>\n To Shuppim and Hosah the lot came forth westward<\/strong>,…. Of Shuppim no mention is before made; of Hosah, see 1Ch 26:10<\/span> their lot was to be placed at the gates on the western wall, where were four; the two more southward being assigned to the sons of Obededom, whose lot also was southward, are taken notice of under the division in the preceding verse; Parbar was another, 1Ch 26:18<\/span>, and another follows here:<\/p>\n with the gate Shallecheth, by the causeway of the going up<\/strong>; this gate was in later times called Coponius, from the name of a Roman commander, in the times of Herod, who might give it this name on his account; it might have the name of Shallecheth either from “sending out”, or carrying out the filth of the temple through it; or rather from “casting up the causeway”, as here expressed, which was the going up, or ascent, Solomon made, by which he went up to the temple, 1Ki 20:5<\/span> and which agrees with the description Josephus a gives of one of the gates on the western wall, that it led to the royal palace, the valley between being filled up for the passage; on each side of which causeway, it is said, grew oaks and teil trees, see Isa 6:13<\/span> which served both to keep up the causeway, and to make a fine, pleasant, shady walk for the king to pass through to the temple; all which are observed by Dr. Lightfoot b:<\/p>\n ward against ward<\/strong>; for as the gates answered one another, so the wards or watches at them.<\/p>\n a Antiqu. l. 15. c. 11. sect. 5. b Ut supra, (Prospect of the Temple), c. 5. sect. 1.<\/p>\n (16) To Shuppim and Hosah.<\/strong>No such name as Shuppim (1Ch. 7:12<\/span>) occurs among those of the Levitical warders as given above in 1Ch. 26:1-11<\/span>. It is almost certainly a mistaken repetition of the last two syllables of Asuppim, which immediately precedes it. (The mistake is as old as the Vulgate; the LXX. has ,<\/em> perhaps reading lishnym<\/em> instead of le Shuppm.<\/em>) Read: And to Hosah<\/em> (the lot fell) to the west, with the gate Shallketh on the highway that goeth up.<\/em><\/p>\n The gate Shalleketh,<\/strong> mentioned here only. The name means casting down<\/em> (in Isa. 6:13<\/span>, it denotes felling<\/em> a tree); and hence this gate has been identified with the Rubbish or Refuse Gate. (Comp. Neh. 3:13<\/span>.) It seems an objection to this, that the gate faced the highway that goeth up<\/em> from the lower city to the Temple. Perhaps the name alludes to the drop, or steep descent, from the Sanctuary to the city.<\/p>\n Ward against ward.<\/strong>Heb., mishmr l<\/em>ummath mishmr.<\/em> Compare the use of the same preposition in 1Ch. 26:12<\/span> and 1Ch. 25:8<\/span>; 1Ch. 24:31<\/span>. Here the meaning seems to be that Hosah had to guard two posts, viz., the western gate of the Temple, and the gate Shalleketh which lay opposite, in the western wall of the Temple area. (The LXX. has ; the Vulgate custodia contra custodiam;<\/em> implying that Hosahs warders were stationed opposite to each other.) But perhaps these concluding words refer to all four stations, and should be rendered, ward like ward,<\/em> or ward and ward alike,<\/em> or post over against post. 1Ch 26:16<\/span><\/em><\/strong>. <\/strong>With the gate Shallecheth, <\/em><\/strong>&c.<\/strong> With the gate of ejections, <\/em>[or by which the filth of the temple and of the courts was cast out] towards the paved ascent. <\/em>Houbigant.
