'Upper' in the Bible

And behold, six men came from the way of the upper gate, which is turned toward the north, and every man with his slaughter weapon in his hand; and in the midst of them, one man clothed with linen, with a writer's ink-horn by his side; and they went in, and stood beside the brazen altar.

And for the side-chambers there was an enlarging, and it went round about the house increasing upward; for the surrounding of the house increased upward round about the house; therefore the house had width upward, and so ascended from the lower story to the upper, by the middle one.

And the upper cells, because the galleries encroached on them, were shorter than the lower, and than the middle-most of the building.

And the upper altar was four cubits; and from the hearth of God and upward were four horns.
