Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

Hosah: 1 Chronicles 26:10, 1 Chronicles 26:11

Shallecheth: That is, ejection; probably the gate through which all the filth which from time to time might accumulate in the temple and its courts, was cast out.

causeway: 1 Kings 10:5, 2 Chronicles 9:4

ward against ward: That is, their stations were opposite to each other; as the north to the south, and the east to the west. 1 Chronicles 26:12, 1 Chronicles 25:8, Nehemiah 12:24

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 “to Shuppim” ought to be cancelled, the name having arisen from an accidental repetition of the preceding word, “Asuppim.”

The gate Shallecheth - 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.

The causeway of the going up - Compare the marginal reference note.

Ward against ward - 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.

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.
