/Chapter 41

41 / 48

Ezekiel

ESV

Chapter 41

¹Then he brought me to the nave and measured the posts, six cubits wide on the one side and six cubits wide on the other side, which was the width of the tent. ²The width of the opening was ten cubits, and the sidewalls of the opening were five cubits on the one side and five cubits on the other side. And he measured the length of the nave, forty cubits, and its width, twenty cubits. ³Then he went into the inner room and measured the posts of the opening, two cubits, and the opening, six cubits, and the width of the opening, seven cubits. ⁴And he measured the length of it, twenty cubits, and the width, twenty cubits, across the nave. And he said to me, “This is the Most Holy Place.” ⁵Then he measured the wall of the temple, six cubits thick, and the width of the side chambers, four cubits, all around the temple on every side. ⁶The side chambers were in three stories, one over another, thirty in each story. There were offsets all around the wall of the temple to serve as rests for the side chambers, so that they should not be supported by the wall of the temple. ⁷And it became broader upward to the side chambers, for the circling ascent went up to the side chambers all around the temple. For this reason the temple had a broader area upward, and so one went up from the lowest story to the top story by way of the middle one. ⁸I saw also that the temple had a raised platform all around; the foundations of the side chambers measured a full reed of six long cubits. ⁹The thickness of the wall that was for the side chambers, on the outside, was five cubits. And the free space between the side chambers of the temple and the outer chambers was ¹⁰a width of twenty cubits all around the temple on every side. ¹¹And the doors of the side chambers opened on the free space, one door toward the north and another door toward the south. And the width of the free space was five cubits all around. ¹²The building that was facing the separate yard on the west side was seventy cubits wide, and the wall of the building was five cubits thick all around, and its length ninety cubits. ¹³Then he measured the temple, one hundred cubits long; and the separate yard and the building with its walls, one hundred cubits long; ¹⁴also the width of the temple and the separate yard to the east, one hundred cubits. ¹⁵Then he measured the length of the building facing the separate yard, which was at the rear and its galleries on either side, one hundred cubits. Also the inner nave and the vestibules of the court, ¹⁶the thresholds and the narrow windows and the galleries all around the three of them, opposite the threshold, were paneled with wood all around, from the floor up to the windows (now the windows were covered), ¹⁷to the space above the door, even to the inner room, and on the outside. And on all the walls all around, inside and outside, was a measured pattern. ¹⁸It was carved with cherubim and palm trees, a palm tree between cherub and cherub. Every cherub had two faces: ¹⁹a human face toward the palm tree on the one side, and a lion's face toward the palm tree on the other side. They were carved on the whole temple all around. ²⁰From the floor to above the door, cherubim and palm trees were carved on the wall of the nave. ²¹The doorposts of the nave were squared, and the front of the sanctuary had an appearance like the appearance of the other. ²²There was a wooden altar, three cubits high and two cubits long, with its corners, its base, and its sides of wood. He said to me, “This is the table that is before the Lord.” ²³The nave and the sanctuary had each a double door. ²⁴The double doors had two leaves, two pivoting leaves in each door; two leaves for the one door and two for the other. ²⁵On the doors of the nave were carved cherubim and palm trees, just as they were carved on the walls. And there was a canopy of wood on the outside of the vestibule. ²⁶And there were narrow windows and palm trees on the one side and on the other side, on the sidewalls of the vestibule, the side chambers of the temple, and the canopies.
