There was an areaway, 10 cubits wide and <sup class="footnote-marker">g</sup><i class="footnote">Septuagint and Syriac read “and 100 cubits long”; cf. vv. 2–3.</i>a road of one cubit,<sup class="endFootnote">-g</sup> running along the inner-court side of the chamber complex, but its entrances were on its north side.מב:ה

For they were arranged in three tiers, and they had no columns like those of the chambers in the courts.<sup class="footnote-marker">h</sup><i class="footnote">See vv. 8–9 referring to chambers along the west wall.</i> That is why the rise proceeded by stages: from the ground, from the bottom ones, and from the middle ones.מב:ז
