43<\/strong>. within<\/em> were hooks<\/em> ] The word rendered hooks<\/em> occurs in the sense of cattlepens (Psa 68:14<\/span>), a meaning precluded here by the dimension, a handbreadth. Such hooks fitted up “within,” i.e. in the porch, might be used for hanging the carcases upon in order to flay them (Targ.). The meaning “hooks” is not certain. LXX. assumes that the stone tables are still referred to and points differently, reading lip or border for “hooks:” “and they shall have a border of hewn stone inwards round about of a span broad.” Cf. Eze 43:13<\/span>; Eze 43:17<\/span>.<\/p>\n flesh of the offering<\/em> ] Except in a clause of Eze 20:28<\/span> (wanting in LXX.) the word “offering” is not used by Ezek. The present clause seems to say little. LXX. reads: “and over the tables above (they shall have) coverings, to protect them from the wet and from the heat” which has a suspicious resemblance to Isa 4:6<\/span>.<\/p>\n The Eze 40:38-43<\/span> are no doubt in some disorder. They suggest several questions not easily settled. Upon the whole it is improbable that slaughtering took place at more than one gate. The word “northwards” indeed ( Eze 40:40<\/em><\/span>) seems decisive of this point. Either the N. gate is intended, or the N. side of the E. gate, no other gate having a N. side. There are several things in favour of the N. gate:<\/p>\n (1) In Eze 40:35-37<\/em><\/span> the prophet was at the N. inner gate, and no intimation is given that he was transported to another gate in Eze 40:38<\/em><\/span>. (2) In the Law slaughtering is ordered to be performed on the N. side of the altar in the case of the burnt, sin and trespass offerings (Lev 1:11<\/span>; Lev 4:24<\/span>; Lev 4:29<\/span>; Lev 4:33<\/span>; Lev 6:25<\/span>; Lev 7:2<\/span>; Lev 14:13<\/span>); no injunction is given in the case of the peace-offering (Eze 3:2<\/span>; Eze 3:8<\/span>; Eze 3:13<\/span>). It is probable that the prophet’s legislation and that of the Levitical books will be in harmony. (3) In ch. Eze 8:5<\/span> the “altar-gate” is certainly the N. gate. (4) The E. gate, both inner and outer, was to be kept shut except on sabbaths and new moons (Eze 46:1<\/span>), or on other occasions when the prince wished to offer a freewill offering (Eze 46:12<\/span>). In favour of the E. gate there is the supposed meaning of Eze 40:40<\/em><\/span>; but the rendering, “on the N. of one going up to the entry,” is hardly tenable ( Eze 40:40<\/em><\/span>). Ew. indeed for “gates” Eze 40:38<\/em><\/span> would read “east gate” a purely arbitrary amendment. And altogether unhappy is his proposal to read for without<\/em> (michuah), Eze 40:40<\/em><\/span>, “runnel” (meruah) the verb to “run” being never used of the running of water or fluids.<\/p>\n Hooks – <\/B>The alternative renderings given in the margin indicate the doubtfulness of the translation of the original word. The form is dual, and indicates that it is some object usually found in pairs. Some suggest that they were borders or ledges set, on either side of the tables, a handbreadth from the edges, to prevent the instruments placed on them from falling off. If the rendering hooks be adopted, it is to be explained thus: that these hooks were set on the wall within, that each hook was forked (hence, the dual form), and projected from the wall one span; and that on these hooks were hung the carcasses of the slain animals.<\/P><\/p>\n Within the house, porch, or whatever the place be called where these tables stood. <\/P> Hooks; <\/B>learned conjectures here, as in many other places, perplex more than explain. Hooks, on which the slaughtered sacrifice might be hanged. while they prepared it further, were needful, and the word imports such iron hooks. It is probable that there might be two hooks of iron fastened to or wrought out, where the plate was so broad, and therefore called hooks in the plural. Fastened to walls, no doubt, near these tables. <\/P> Upon the tables was the flesh of the offering; <\/B>they were careful to keep the holy flesh from lying any where that might look like common ground. It is like that the sacrifice was fastened to these hooks, and rested on these stone tables, while the priests cut them into their pieces. <\/P> <\/p>\n 43. hooks<\/B>cooking apparatusfor cooking the flesh of the sacrifices that fell to the priests.

The Hebrew<\/I> comes from aroot “fixed” or “placed.”<\/P><\/p>\n And within were hooks, a hand broad, fastened round about<\/strong>,…. These, very probably, were fastened on the posts of the gate, near which were the washing room for the sacrifices, Eze 40:38<\/span>, on which they were hung, when they were flayed, or the skin took off: in the slaughter house in the second temple, to the north of the altar, there were eight low stone pillars, upon which were boards of cedar foursquare, and iron hooks were fixed in them; and there were three rows of them in each, on which they hung the sacrifices s, which were one above another; on the lowest they hung a lamb, on the middlemost a ram, and on the highest a bullock; these hooks stood out a hand’s breadth from the pillars t: such like iron hooks were fixed on the walls and pillars in the court, where they slew the passover lamb, on which they hung it, and skinned it u: this may denote either, as Cocceius suggests, the exaltation of Christ, who suffered and was raised for our justification; or rather the lifting of him up, and holding him forth to view, as a suffering Saviour, in the ministry of the word, and in the ordinance of the supper.<\/p>\n And upon the tables was the flesh of the offering<\/strong>: here another word is used, and may design that part of the flesh of the sin offering that was eaten by the priest, Le 6:25<\/span> so that these tables were feasting tables also; as the table of the Lord, or the ordinance of the Lord’s supper, is a feast of fat things, a feast of love; a table where the flesh of Christ is laid, which is meat indeed, and only to be fed upon by those that are made kings and priests unto God. Now these tables being many show that there will be a large number of Gospel churches everywhere; and wherever they are there will be tables: the ordinance of the Lord’s supper will be celebrated in the four parts of the world; at present it is chiefly in the northern part, and where these tables were seen in this vision.<\/p>\n s Misn.
