Phrase of Scripture		Correlating Passages

the horse gate		This gate was in the eastern wall of the city, towards the brook Kidron, (Jer 31:40,) at which the king's horses probably went out from the stables at Millo. It was near the temple; and some Rabbins suppose that, in order to go to the temple, a person might go on horseback to this place, but was then obliged to alight. Neh 3:28
they slew her there		2Ch 22:10; Jdg 1:7; Psa 5:6; Psa 55:23; Mat 7:2; Jam 2:13; Rev 16:5-7
