'Side chambers' in the Bible
And the side-chambers, one over another were three, and that thirty times, and they entered into the wall which pertained to the house for the side-chambers round about on every side that they might have support, -and yet not have support in the wall of the house itself.
And there was a broadening and a winding about higher and higher to the side-chambers, for the circuit of the house! was higher and higher round about on every side of the house, for this cause was there a broadening of the house upwards, - and from the lower, one ascended to the higher, by that which was in the middle,
Then saw I that the house had a height round about on every side, - the foundations of the side- chambers, a full reed, six cubits to the joining.
The breadth of the wall which pertained to the side-chamber on the outside was five cubits,- and that which was left vacant between the side-chambers which pertained to the house.
And there were latticed windows and palm-trees on this side and on that side, unto the sides of the porch, - and unto the side chambers of the house and the thick beams.
