Verse 18

At Parbar westward ,.... A gate at the western wall; the Jewish writers generally interpret it an outward place, but Dr. Lightfoot F3 Ib. (Prospect of the Temple, ch. 5.) sect. 2. thinks it is the same with Parvar, which signifies suburbs, 2 Kings 23:11 , and which agrees with the description Josephus F4 Ut supra. (Antiqu. l. 15. c. 11. sect. 5.) gives of one of the western gates, that it led to the suburbs:

four at the causeway ; by which was the gate Shallecheth, 1 Chronicles 26:16 .

and two at Parbar ; the gate before mentioned.
