Gallery

Gallery, [E]

an architectural term describing the porticos or verandas which are not uncommon in eastern houses. It is doubtful, however, whether the Hebrew words so translated have any reference to such an object. (According to the latest researches, the colonnade or else wainscoting is meant. ( Solomon 1:17 ; Ezekiel 41:15 ) --Schaff.) [E] indicates this entry was also found in Easton's Bible Dictionary
