and the arches thereof were before them; [See comments on Ezekiel 40:22]:
and it had palm trees, one on this side, and another on that side, upon the posts thereof; that is, on the posts of this gate were palm trees, two on each post, one on one side, and the other on the other: this verse shows us how many palm trees were painted on the posts, and how they were disposed of; [See comments on Ezekiel 40:16].
