Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

Parbar: i.e. the outside place; he annulled the corn; a quarter of Jerusalem (Strong) [Strong's H6503], 1 Chronicles 26:18, Also, 2 Kings 23:11, Parbar is most probably the same as parwar, which denotes suburbs - 2 Kings 23:11, in which sense it is often used in the Chaldee Targums; and consequently this may be considered as leading to the suburbs.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

At Parbar westward,.... A gate at the western wall; the Jewish writers generally interpret it an outward place, but Dr. Lightfoot c thinks it is the same with Parvar, which signifies suburbs, 2 Kings 23:11, and which agrees with the description Josephus d 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.

c Ib. (Prospect of the Temple, ch. 5.) sect. 2. d Ut supra. (Antiqu. l. 15. c. 11. sect. 5.)

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

“Parbar” must designate here the space between the western wall of the temple building and the wall of the court, which would be a sort of “precinct” or “purlieu” of the temple (2 Kings 23:11 note). Here were two gates, at one of which two guards were stationed; while at the Shallecheth, which gave upon the causeway, there were four. In this whole account, the temple is spoken of as if it were existing, when it was not as yet built. We must suppose that David formed the whole plan of the temple, and fixed the stations and numbers of the porters, though it was left for Solomon to carry out his instructions.
