2 Kings 7:1
Elisha replied ............. says <0559 0477> [Elisha said. See on ch.]
tomorrow <04279> [To-morrow.]
seah ... finely milled flour ......... seahs <05560 05429> [a measure of fine flour.]
A {seah} of flour: the {seah} was about two gallons and a half; the shekel 2s. 4d. at the lowest computation: a wide difference between this and the price of the ass's head.
barley <08184> [of barley.]
gate ... Samaria <08179 08111> [in the gate of Samaria.]
From this it appears that the gates were not only used as courts of judicature, but as market-places. So Mr. Morier observes: "In our rides we usually went out of the town at the {Derwazeh Shah Abdul Azeem,} or the gate leading to the village of Shah Abdul Azeem, where a market was held every morning, particularly of horses, mules, asses, and camels. At about sun-rise, the owners of the animals assemble and exhibit them for sale. But besides, here were sellers of all sorts of goods, in temporary shops and tents: and this, perhaps, will explain the custom alluded to in 2 Ki 7:18."
