Before the oracle - In theoutward part of the wall, or partition, which was erected between the oracleand the holy place; which is properly said to be before the oracle, therethe veil was hung; and there the chains or bars, or whatsoever it was whichfastened the doors of the oracle, were placed. It - The partition; whichhe here distinguisheth from the house, or the main walls of the house,which he had in the former part of this verse told us were overlaid withgold; and now he affirms much as of the partition.
