וַיֹּ֖אמֶר אֵלָ֑י אֵ֚לֶּה בֵּ֣ית הַֽמְבַשְּׁלִ֔ים אֲשֶׁ֧ר יְבַשְּׁלוּ־שָׁ֛ם מְשָׁרְתֵ֥י הַבַּ֖יִת אֶת־זֶ֥בַח הָעָֽם׃
At sinabi niya sa akin: “Ito ang mga lutuan, kung saan pakukuluan ng mga naglilingkod sa Bahay ang mga handog ng bayan.”
The Third Beit HaMikdash
“And he said to me, ‘These are the cooking places where those who serve in the House will cook the sacrifices of the people.’ ”6Ibid.:24. The sacrifices mentioned in this verse are the breast and the lower leg of peace-offerings, which would not be disqualified by being taken out of the Courtyard of the Israelites. In contrast, this would disqualify the sin-offerings and the guilt-offerings. Hence, a special place was set aside to cook them within the Inner Courtyard, as will be explained in sec. 71.
