Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the king of Israel, and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, sat each on his throne,.... In great state and majesty:
having put on their robes; their royal robes, which they wore when they appeared in pomp and grandeur:
in a void place in the entrance of the gate of Samaria; where courts of judicature were held, and there was an open void space for the people to assemble in to hear; the word has the signification of a corn floor, and the Jews suppose they and their attendants sat in a semicircle like the half of a corn floor, after the same manner in which they say the sanhedrim at Jerusalem sat o:
and all the prophets prophesied before them; concerning this affair of going to Ramothgilead.
o T. Bab. Cholin, fol. 5. 1. Vid. Kimchium in loc.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Sat each on his throne - Or, “were sitting.” They had removed from the banquet 2 Chronicles 18:2 to the void place, or empty space at the entrance of the gate Ruth 4:1; 2 Samuel 15:2, where Ahab daily sat to hear complaints and decide causes. Each was seated upon his throne, the Oriental kings having portable thrones, which they took with them upon their journeys.
