The concept of a chamber appears in various contexts throughout the Bible, reflecting both the architectural practices of ancient times and the symbolic meanings associated with private or sacred spaces. Old Testament Usage In the Old Testament, chambers are frequently mentioned in the context of the Temple and other significant structures. For instance, in <a href="/1_kings/6-5.htm">1 Kings 6:5</a>, Solomon's Temple is described as having side chambers built around the main structure: "Against the walls of the main hall and the inner sanctuary, he built chambers all around the temple." These chambers served practical purposes, such as storage for temple treasures and offerings, as well as providing living quarters for priests. The prophet Ezekiel also provides a detailed description of chambers in his vision of the future temple. In <a href="/ezekiel/40-17.htm">Ezekiel 40:17</a>, he notes, "Then he brought me into the outer court, and there were chambers and a pavement made for the court all around; thirty chambers faced the pavement." These chambers were integral to the temple's function and organization. Chambers are also mentioned in domestic settings. In <a href="/2_kings/4-10.htm">2 Kings 4:10</a>, the Shunammite woman prepares a chamber for the prophet Elisha: "Please let us make a small room upstairs and put in it a bed, a table, a chair, and a lamp for him. Then he can stay there whenever he comes to us." This chamber provided a private and hospitable space for the prophet during his travels. Symbolic and Spiritual Significance Beyond their physical function, chambers often carry symbolic meanings in Scripture. They can represent a place of intimacy and privacy, where individuals seek solitude or engage in personal reflection and prayer. In the Song of Solomon, the chamber is a place of love and intimacy between the bride and bridegroom, as seen in <a href="/songs/1-4.htm">Song of Solomon 1:4</a>: "Take me away with you—let us hurry! Let the king bring me into his chambers." Chambers can also symbolize the inner sanctum of the heart, a place where one communes with God. In <a href="/matthew/6-6.htm">Matthew 6:6</a>, Jesus instructs His followers on the importance of private prayer: "But when you pray, go into your inner room, shut your door, and pray to your Father, who is unseen. And your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you." Here, the "inner room" or chamber signifies a personal and undistracted space for spiritual connection. New Testament Context In the New Testament, the concept of chambers is less frequently mentioned but still holds significance. The upper room where Jesus shared the Last Supper with His disciples can be considered a chamber. In <a href="/mark/14-15.htm">Mark 14:15</a>, Jesus instructs His disciples, "He will show you a large upper room, furnished and ready. Make preparations for us there." This chamber became a pivotal setting for the institution of the Lord's Supper and the teaching of profound spiritual truths. Conclusion In summary, the term "chamber" in the Bible encompasses both practical and symbolic dimensions. Whether referring to the architectural features of sacred and domestic buildings or serving as a metaphor for spiritual intimacy and reflection, chambers play a significant role in the biblical narrative. They remind believers of the importance of creating spaces for worship, hospitality, and personal communion with God.<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div>Chamber(<a href="/genesis/43-30.htm">Genesis 43:30</a>; <a href="/2_samuel/18-33.htm">2 Samuel 18:33</a>; <a href="/psalms/19-5.htm">Psalms 19:5</a>; <a href="/daniel/6-10.htm">Daniel 6:10</a>) The word chamber in these passages has much the same significance as with us, meaning the private rooms of the house --the guest chamber, as with us, meaning a room set apart for the accommodation of the visiting friend. (<a href="/mark/14-14.htm">Mark 14:14,15</a>; <a href="/luke/22-12.htm">Luke 22:12</a>) The upper chamber was used more particularly for the lodgment of strangers.

This was the "guest chamber" where entertainments were prepared (<a href="/mark/14-14.htm">Mark 14:14</a>). There were also "chambers within chambers" (<a href="/1_kings/22-25.htm">1 Kings 22:25</a>; <a href="/2_kings/9-2.htm">2 Kings 9:2</a>). To enter into a chamber is used metaphorically of prayer and communion with God (<a href="/isaiah/26-20.htm">Isaiah 26:20</a>). The "chambers of the south" (<a href="/job/9-9.htm">Job 9:9</a>) are probably the constelations of the southern hemisphere. The "chambers of imagery", i.e., chambers painted with images, as used by Ezekiel (<a href="/job/8-12.htm">8:12</a>), is an expression denoting the vision the prophet had of the abominations practised by the Jews in Jerusalem. <a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.

For the arrangement of rooms in a Hebrew house, see HOUSE. Chedher is a word of frequent occurrence, and designates a private room. Chuppah is translated "chamber" only in <a href="/psalms/19-5.htm">Psalm 19:5</a>, where it is used in connection with "bridegroom," and means a bridal chamber. The same Hebrew word used of the bride in <a href="/joel/2-16.htm">Joel 2:16</a> is rendered "closet." Yatsia` and yatsua` are found only in <a href="/1_kings/6-5.htm">1 Kings 6:5, 6, 10</a> (the King James Version only in all the passages), yatsua` being the reading of Kethibh and yatsia` of Kere in each ease. Here the meaning is really "story," as given in the Revised Version (British and American), except in <a href="/1_kings/6-6.htm">1 Kings 6:6</a>, where doubtless the text should be changed to read ha-tsela`, "the side-chamber." Lishkah, a frequent word, and the equivalent nishkah, infrequent, are used ordinarily of a room in the temple utilized for sacred purposes, occasionally of a room in the palace. `Aliyah and the equivalent Aramaic `illith signify "a roof chamber," i.e. a chamber built on the flat roof of a house. Tsela`, when used of a chamber, designates a side-chamber of the temple. It is usually rendered "side-chamber," but "chamber" in <a href="/1_kings/6-5.htm">1 Kings 6:5, 8</a> (the King James Version), where the Revised Version (British and American) has "side-chamber."

The "large upper room" which was the scene of the Last Supper, with that in <a href="/acts/1-13.htm">Acts 1:13</a>, was also plainly an upper-story chamber.
