House in the Old Testament

In the period up to the Babylonian exile, the so-called four-room house was the most common type of house in Israel and Judah. This type of house was found in villages as well as the cities, though houses in the countryside tended to be larger than those in the cities. Archaeologists think that city dwellings were occupied by a single family, while houses in the countryside were occupied by several families from a single clan.
