1. A room for business or social conversation, for the
reception of guests, etc. Specifically:

inmates are permitted to meet and converse with each
other, or with visitors and friends from without.
--Piers Plowman.
(b) In large private houses, a sitting room for the family
and for familiar guests, -- a room for less formal
uses than the drawing-room. Esp., in modern times, the
dining room of a house having few apartments, as a
London house, where the dining parlor is usually on
the ground floor.
(c) Commonly, in the United States, a drawing-room, or the
room where visitors are received and entertained; a
room in a private house where people can sit and talk
and relax, not usually the same as the dining room.
[1913 Webster +PJC]

call it a parlor, as they called it of old and till
recently." --Fitzed. Hall.

4. Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary |
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 Judg. 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 1 Chr. 28:11 were the small rooms or
chambers which Solomon built all round two sides and one end of
the temple (1 Kings 6:5), "side chambers;" or they may have
been, as some think, the porch and the holy place.
In 1 Sam. 9:22 the Revised Version reads "guest chamber," a
chamber at the high place specially used for sacrificial feasts.
