Ezekiel 8:7
Ver. 7. And he brought me to the door of the court,.... Of the inner court, the court of the priests and Levites. Dr. Lightfoot {x} says this was the east gate, and most common way of entrance; and in that gate the sanhedrim used to sit in these times; and there the prophet sees their council chamber painted about with imagery:
and when I looked, behold a hole in the wall; of one of the chambers of the priests and Levites, where they lay.
