Parlour @ (from the Fr. parler, "to speak") denotes an "audience chamber," but that is not the import of the Hebrew word so rendered. It corresponds to what the Turks call a kiosk, as in kjv@Judges:3:20 (the "summer parlour"), or as in the margin of the Revised Version ("the upper chamber of cooling"), a small room built on the roof of the house, with open windows to catch the breeze, and having a door communicating with the outside by which persons seeking an audience may be admitted. While Eglon was resting in such a parlour, Ehud, under pretence of having a message from God to him, was admitted into his presence, and murderously plunged his dagger into his body (21, 22). The "inner parlours" in kjv@1Chronicles:28:11 were the small rooms or chambers which Solomon built all round two sides and one end of the temple (kjvKings:6:5), "side chambers;" or they may have been, as some think, the porch and the holy place. In kjv@1Samuel:9:22 the Revised Version reads "guest chamber," a chamber at the high place specially used for sacrificial feasts.
