Eastward: 1 Chronicles 9:24, 2 Chronicles 8:14

Asuppim: 1 Chronicles 26:15

Reciprocal: 2 Chronicles 31:14 - the porter

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Eastward were six Levites,.... The eastern gate, being the way of entrance into the temple, required more porters:

northward four a day; in the daytime, or every day, where was the gate Teri or Tedi, 1 Chronicles 26:14, southward four a day: at the two gates of Huldah, 1 Chronicles 26:15 and toward Asuppim two and two; which were two gates, two at each gate, 1 Chronicles 26:15.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Toward Asuppim two and two - It is conjectured that the “store-house” in question (1 Chronicles 26:15 note) had two doors, to each of which two porters were appointed.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Chronicles 26:17. Eastward were six Levites — It is supposed that there were more guards set at this eastern gate, because it was more frequented than the others. At each of the other gates were only four; at this, six.
