Then said he unto me, &c.] After he had described the fabrick and fashion of the chambers, he now setteth down the use of them, that they were for the Priests garments, and eating of the holy things, &c. This he speaketh of the North and South chambers, but those that stood crossing them at the lower end of the court he mentioneth not: for there was some difference in their use: those on the North and South laid up the things of the greatest holinesse, as the Priests garments, and some offerings, as the meat-offering, and sin-offering, and trespasse-offering for the people: but those on the East were for things of an inferiour sanctitie, as tithes and offerings of particular men.
