         Glosses: dividing wall

         Comments: In the NT μεσότοιχον is used figuratively in reference to the partition in the Temple in Jerusalem, which set off the court of the Gentiles from the rest of the Temple area.|Such a ‘dividing wall’ may be rendered as ‘barrier’ or ‘fence which separates.’
