Ezekiel 40:16

Verse 16 of 49. The 40th of 48 chapters in Ezekiel, in The Major Prophets.

12and a border before the lodges, one cubit on this side, and a border, one cubit on that side; and the side rooms, six cubits on this side, and six cubits on that side.

13He measured the gate from the roof of the one side room to the roof of the other, a width of twenty-five cubits, door against door.

14He also made posts, sixty cubits; and the court reached to the posts, around the gate.

15From the forefront of the gate at the entrance to the forefront of the inner porch of the gate were fifty cubits.

16There were closed windows to the side rooms, and to their posts within the gate all around, and likewise to the arches. Windows were around inward. Palm trees were on each post.

17Then he brought me into the outer court. Behold, there were rooms and a pavement made for the court all around. Thirty rooms were on the pavement.

18The pavement was by the side of the gates, corresponding to the length of the gates, even the lower pavement.

19Then he measured the width from the forefront of the lower gate to the forefront of the inner court outside, one hundred cubits, both on the east and on the north.

20He measured the length and width of the gate of the outer court which faces toward the north.
