Gill's Notes on the Bible
To Shuppim and Hosah the lot came forth westward,.... Of Shuppim no mention is before made; of Hosah, see 1 Chronicles 26:10 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, 1 Chronicles 26:18, and another follows here:
with the gate Shallecheth, by the causeway of the going up; 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, 1 Kings 20:5 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 Isaiah 6:13 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:
ward against ward; for as the gates answered one another, so the wards or watches at them.
a Antiqu. l. 15. c. 11. sect. 5. b Ut supra, (Prospect of the Temple), c. 5. sect. 1.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
All recent commentators seem to be agreed that the words âto Shuppimâ ought to be cancelled, the name having arisen from an accidental repetition of the preceding word, âAsuppim.â
The gate Shallecheth - literally, âthe gate of projectionâ - the gate, i. e., through which were âthrown outâ the sweepings of the temple, the ashes, the offal of the victims, and the like.
The causeway of the going up - Compare the marginal reference note.
Ward against ward - Or, âwatch opposite to watch.â 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.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Chronicles 26:16. The gate Shallecheth — The gate of the projections: probably that through which all the offal of the temple was carried out.
