In die illa sanctificavit rex medium atrii, quod erat ante domum Domini; fecit quippe holocaustum ibi et oblationem et adipem pacificorum, quoniam altare aereum, quod erat coram Domino, minus erat et capere non poterat holocaustum et oblationem et adipem pacificorum.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

The same day did the king hallow the middle of the court that was before the house of the Lord,.... The court of the priests that was before the holy place, adjoining to it, in which was the altar of burnt offering; this, or, however, the middle part of it, he sanctified for present use, to offer sacrifices on, for a reason hereafter given:

for there he offered burnt offerings and meat offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings; which was the reason why the middle of the great court was for this time set apart for this service.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The middle of the court - Or, “the whole area of the court “ - all the “mid” space within the enclosing walls, which thus became one huge altar, on any part of which victims might be offered at one and the same time.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 64. Did the king hallow the middle of the court — The great altar of burnt-offerings was not sufficient for the number of sacrifices which were then made; therefore the middle of the court was set apart, and an altar erected there for the same purpose.
