in the gate of Samaria . From this it appears that the gates were not only used as courts of judicature , but as market-places. So Mr. Morier observes . "In our rides we usually went out of the town at the Derwazeh Shah Abdul Azeem , or the gate leading to the village of Shah Abdul Azeem , where a market was held every morning , particularly of horses , mules , asses , and camels. At about sun-rise , the owners of the animals assemble and exhibit them for sale. But besides , here were sellers of all sorts of goods , in temporary shops and tents , and this , perhaps , will explain the custom alluded to in 2 Kings 7 . 18.
