Gate of the temple, or the king’s house (2 Kings 11:6⁶And a third part shall be at the gate of Sur; and a third part at the gate behind the guard: so shall ye keep the watch of the house, that it be not broken down. (2 Kings 11:6)). Apparently the same that is called “gate of the foundation” in 2 Chronicles 23:5⁵And a third part shall be at the king's house; and a third part at the gate of the foundation: and all the people shall be in the courts of the house of the Lord. (2 Chronicles 23:5).
