SECT. VIII. The street leading from the Temple towards Olivet.
u 1.1RAbban Jochanan ben Zaccai〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉sat under the shaddow of the Temple, and taught the people the whole day. The Gloss, when the Temple was an hundred Cubits high, it cast its shaddow a great way in length, unto that street which was before〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉the Mountain of the House. And because that Street was spacious, and might contain a great multitude of men, Jochanan taught there by reason of the heat. For no Synagogue could contain his hearers.
That street which was before the Mount of the Temple, according to the accustomed form of speech, was that by which they went to the Temple, at the East gate; concerning which Street, and the people convened thither by Hezechia, mention is made 2 Chron.
