Book 26 : EZEKIEL - Chapter 042
042:001
Before the length of an hundred cubits was the north door, and
the breadth was fifty cubits
042:002
Over against the twenty cubits which were for the inner court,
and over against the pavement which was for the utter court,
was gallery against gallery in three stories
042:003
And before the chambers was a walk to ten cubits breadth
inward, a way of one cubit; and their doors toward the north
042:004
Now the upper chambers were shorter: for the galleries were
higher than these, than the lower, and than the middlemost of
the building
042:005
For they were in three stories, but had not pillars as the
pillars of the courts: therefore the building was straitened
more than the lowest and the middlemost from the ground
042:006
And the wall that was without over against the chambers,
toward the utter court on the forepart of the chambers, the
length thereof was fifty cubits
042:007
For the length of the chambers that were in the utter court
was fifty cubits: and, lo, before the temple were an hundred
cubits
042:008
And from under these chambers was the entry on the east side,
as one goeth into them from the utter court
042:009
The chambers were in the thickness of the wall of the court
toward the east, over against the separate place, and over
against the building
042:010
And the way before them was like the appearance of the
chambers which were toward the north, as long as they, and as
broad as they: and all their goings out were both according to
their fashions, and according to their doors
042:011
And according to the doors of the chambers that were toward
the south was a door in the head of the way, even the way
directly before the wall toward the east, as one entereth into
them
042:012
Then said he unto me, The north chambers and the south
chambers, which are before the separate place, they be holy
chambers, where the priests that approach unto the LORD shall
eat the most holy things: there shall they lay the most holy
things, and the meat offering, and the sin offering, and the
trespass offering; for the place is holy
042:013
When the priests enter therein, then shall they not go out of
the holy place into the utter court, but there they shall lay
their garments wherein they minister; for they are holy; and
shall put on other garments, and shall approach to those
things which are for the people
042:014
Now when he had made an end of measuring the inner house, he
brought me forth toward the gate whose prospect is toward the
east, and measured it round about
042:015
He measured the east side with the measuring reed, five
hundred reeds, with the measuring reed round about
042:016
He measured the north side, five hundred reeds, with the
measuring reed round about
042:017
He measured the south side, five hundred reeds, with the
measuring reed
042:018
He turned about to the west side, and measured five hundred
reeds with the measuring reed
042:019
He measured it by the four sides: it had a wall round about,
five hundred reeds long, and five hundred broad, to make a
separation between the sanctuary and the profane place
