Shallecheth

(overthrow), The gate, one of the gates of the “house of Jehovah.” (1 Chronicles 26:16) It was the gate “to the causeway of the ascent.” As the causeway is actually in existence, the gate Shallecheth can hardly fail to be identical with the Bab Silsileh or Sinsleh which enters the west wall of the Haram about 600 feet from the southwest corner of the Haram wall.

SHAL'LECHETH (a casting down), the name of a gate of the temple. 1 Chr 26:16. Literally, it means the "gate of projection" - that is, from which were thrown out the sweepings, ashes, and offal of the temple. The causeway was made by Solomon from his own palace by way of the Tyropoeon valley to the western wall of the temple; to this causeway the gate led, Grove would identify it with the gate Sinsleh, at the western wall of the Haram enclosure, 600 feet above the south-western corner.
