Ezekiel 40:41

Verse 41 of 49. The 40th of 48 chapters in Ezekiel, in The Major Prophets.

37Its posts were toward the outer court. Palm trees were on its posts on this side and on that side. The ascent to it had eight steps.

38A room with its door was by the posts at the gates. They washed the burnt offering there.

39In the porch of the gate were two tables on this side and two tables on that side, on which to kill the burnt offering, the sin offering, and the trespass offering.

40On the one side outside, as one goes up to the entry of the gate toward the north, were two tables; and on the other side, which belonged to the porch of the gate, were two tables.

41Four tables were on this side, and four tables on that side, by the side of the gate: eight tables, on which they killed the sacrifices.

42There were four cut stone tables for the burnt offering, a cubit and a half long, a cubit and a half wide, and one cubit high. They laid the instruments with which they killed the burnt offering and the sacrifice on them.

43The hooks, a hand width long, were fastened within all around. The meat of the offering was on the tables.

44Outside of the inner gate were rooms for the singers in the inner court, which was at the side of the north gate. They faced toward the south. One at the side of the east gate faced toward the north.

45He said to me, “This room, which faces toward the south, is for the priests who perform the duty of the house.
