Ezekiel 41:1–14

Then the man brought me to the main hall^m and measured the jambs; the width of the jambs was six cubits^a on each side.^{b 2}The entrance was ten cubits^c wide, and the projecting walls on each side of it were five cubits^d wide. He also measured the main hall; it was forty cubits long and twenty cubits wide.^en

³Then he went into the inner sanctuary and measured the jambs of the entrance; each was two cubits^f wide. The entrance was six cubits wide, and the projecting walls on each side of it were seven cubits^g wide. ⁴And he measured the length of the inner sanctuary; it was twenty cubits, and its width was twenty cubits across the end of the main hall.^o He said to me, “This is the Most Holy Place.^p”

⁵Then he measured the wall of the temple; it was six cubits thick, and each side room around the temple was four cubits^h wide. ⁶The side rooms were on three levels, one above another, thirty^q on each level. There were ledges all around the wall of the temple to serve as supports for the side rooms, so that the supports were not inserted into the wall of the temple.^{r 7}The side rooms all around the temple were wider at each successive level. The structure surrounding the temple was built in ascending stages, so that the rooms widened as one went upward. A stairway^s went up from the lowest floor to the top floor through the middle floor.

⁸I saw that the temple had a raised base all around it, forming the foundation of the side rooms. It was the length of the rod, six long cubits. ⁹The outer wall of the side rooms was five cubits thick. The open area between the side rooms of the temple ¹⁰and the priests’ rooms was twenty cubits wide all around the temple. ¹¹There were entrances to the side rooms from the open area, one on the north and another on the south; and the base adjoining the open area was five cubits wide all around.

¹²The building facing the temple courtyard on the west side was seventy cubitsⁱ wide. The wall of the building was five cubits thick all around, and its length was ninety cubits.^j

¹³Then he measured the temple; it was a hundred cubits^k long, and the temple courtyard and the building with its walls were also a hundred cubits long. ¹⁴The width of the temple courtyard on the east, including the front of the temple, was a hundred cubits.^t
