Vision of the Man with a Measuring Rod

40In the twenty-fifth year of our exile, at the beginning of the year, on the tenth of the month, in the fourteenth year after the city was taken, on that same day the hand of the LORD was upon me and He brought me there.H2568H6242H8141H1546H7218H8141H6218H2320H702H6240H8141H310H5892H5221H6106H3117H3027H3068H935 2In the visions of God He brought me into the land of Israel, and set me on a very high mountain; and on it to the south [there was] a structure like a city.H4759H430H935H776H3478H5117H3966H1364H2022H4011H5892H5045 3So He brought me there; and behold, there was a man whose appearance was like the appearance of bronze, with a line of flax and a measuring rod in his hand; and he was standing in the gateway.H935H376H4758H4758H5178H6616H6593H3027H4060H7070H5975H8179 4And the man said to me, "Son of man, see with your eyes, hear with your ears, and give attention to all that I am going to show you; for you have been brought here in order to show [it] to you. Declare to the house of Israel all that you see."H376H1696H1121H120H7200H5869H8085H241H7760H3820H7200H4616H7200H935H5046H7200H1004H3478

Measurements Relating to the Temple

5And behold, there was a wall on the outside of the temple all around, and in the man's hand was a measuring rod of six cubits, [each of which was] a cubit and a handbreadth. So he measured the thickness of the wall, one rod; and the height, one rod.H2346H2351H1004H5439H376H3027H4060H7070H8337H520H520H2948H4058H7341H1146H259H7070H6967H259H7070 6Then he went to the gate which faced east, went up its steps, and measured the threshold of the gate, one rod in width; and the other threshold [was] one rod in width.H935H8179H6440H1870H6921H5927H4609H4058H5592H8179H259H7070H7341H259H5592H259H7070H7341 7And the guardroom [was] one rod long and one rod wide; and [there were] five cubits between the guardrooms. And the threshold of the gate by the porch of the gate facing inward [was] one rod.H8372H259H7070H753H259H7070H7341H8372H2568H520H5592H8179H681H197H8179H1004H259H7070 8Then he measured the porch of the gate facing inward, one rod.H4058H197H8179H1004H259H7070 9And he measured the porch of the gate, eight cubits; and its side pillars, two cubits. And the porch of the gate was faced inward.H4058H197H8179H8083H520H352H8147H520H197H8179H1004 10And the guardrooms of the gate toward the east [numbered] three on each side; the three of them had the same measurement. The side pillars also had the same measurement on each side.H8372H8179H1870H6921H7969H6311H7969H6311H7969H259H4060H352H259H4060 11And he measured the width of the gateway, ten cubits, and the length of the gate, thirteen cubits.H4058H7341H6607H8179H6235H520H753H8179H7969H6240H520 12And [there was] a barrier [wall] one cubit [wide] in front of the guardrooms on each side; and the guardrooms [were] six cubits [square] on each side.H1366H6440H8372H259H520H1366H520H8372H8337H520H8337H520 13And he measured the gate from the roof of the one guardroom to the roof of the other, a width of twenty-five cubits from [one] door to [the] door opposite.H4058H8179H1406H8372H1406H7341H2568H6242H520H6607H6607 14And he made the side pillars sixty cubits [high;] the gate [extended] round about to the side pillar of the courtyard.H6213H352H8346H520H352H2691H5439H8179 15And [from] the front of the entrance gate to the front of the inner porch of the gate [was] fifty cubits.H6440H8179H2978H6440H197H6442H8179H2572H520 16And [there were] shuttered windows [looking] toward the guardrooms, and toward their side pillars within the gate all around, and likewise for the porches. And [there were] windows all around inside; and on [each] side pillar [were] palm tree ornaments.H331H2474H8372H352H6441H8179H5439H361H2474H5439H6441H352H8561 17Then he brought me into the outer court, and behold, [there were] chambers and a pavement, made for the court all around; thirty chambers faced the pavement.H935H2435H2691H3957H7531H6213H2691H5439H7970H3957H7531 18And the pavement ([that is,] the lower pavement) [was] by the side of the gates, corresponding to the length of the gates.H7531H3802H8179H5980H753H8179H8481H7531 19Then he measured the width from the front of the lower gate to the front of the exterior of the inner court, a hundred cubits on the east and on the north.H4058H7341H6440H8481H8179H6440H6442H2691H2351H3967H520H6921H6828 20And [as for] the gate of the outer court which faced the north, he measured its length and its width.H8179H2435H2691H6440H1870H6828H4058H753H7341 21And it had three guardrooms on each side; and its side pillars and its porches had the same measurement as the first gate. Its length [was] fifty cubits, and the width twenty-five cubits.H8372H7969H7969H352H361H4060H7223H8179H753H2572H520H7341H2568H6242H520 22And its windows, and its porches, and its palm tree ornaments [had] the same measurements as the gate which faced toward the east; and it was reached by seven steps, and its porch [was] in front of them.H2474H361H8561H4060H8179H6440H1870H6921H5927H7651H4609H361H6440 23And the inner court had a gate opposite the gate on the north as well as [the gate] on the east; and he measured a hundred cubits from gate to gate.H8179H6442H2691H8179H6828H6921H4058H8179H8179H3967H520 24Then he led me toward the south, and behold, there was a gate toward the south; and he measured its side pillars and its porches according to those same measurements.H3212H1870H1864H8179H1870H1864H4058H352H361H4060 25And the gate and its porches had windows all around like those other windows; the length [was] fifty cubits and the width twenty-five cubits.H2474H361H5439H2474H753H2572H520H7341H2568H6242H520 26And [there were] seven steps going up to it, and its porches [were] in front of them; and it had palm tree ornaments on its side pillars, one on each side.H7651H4609H5930H361H6440H8561H259H259H352 27And the inner court had a gate toward the south; and he measured from gate to gate toward the south, a hundred cubits.H8179H6442H2691H1870H1864H4058H8179H8179H1870H1864H3967H520 28Then he brought me to the inner court by the south gate; and he measured the south gate according to those same measurements.H935H6442H2691H1864H8179H4058H1864H8179H4060 29Its guardrooms also, its side pillars, and its porches [were] according to those same measurements. And the gate and its porches had windows all around; it [was] fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.H8372H352H361H4060H2474H361H5439H2572H520H753H2568H6242H520H7341 30And [there were] porches all around, twenty-five cubits long and five cubits wide.H361H5439H2568H6242H520H753H2568H520H7341 31And its porches [were] toward the outer court; and palm tree ornaments [were] on its side pillars, and its stairway had eight steps.H361H2435H2691H8561H352H4608H8083H4609 32And he brought me into the inner court toward the east. And he measured the gate according to those same measurements.H935H6442H2691H1870H6921H4058H8179H4060 33Its guardrooms also, its side pillars, and its porches [were] according to those same measurements. And the gate and its porches had windows all around; it [was] fifty cubits long and twenty-five cubits wide.H8372H352H361H4060H2474H361H5439H2572H520H753H2568H6242H520H7341 34And its porches [were] toward the outer court; and palm tree ornaments [were] on its side pillars, on each side, and its stairway had eight steps.H361H2435H2691H8561H352H4608H8083H4609 35Then he brought me to the north gate; and he measured [it] according to those same measurements,H935H6828H8179H4058H4060 36[with] its guardrooms, its side pillars, and its porches. And the gate had windows all around; the length [was] fifty cubits and the width twenty-five cubits.H8372H352H361H2474H5439H753H2572H520H7341H2568H6242H520 37And its side pillars [were] toward the outer court; and palm tree ornaments [were] on its side pillars on each side, and its stairway had eight steps.H352H2435H2691H8561H352H4608H8083H4609 38And a chamber with its doorway was by the side pillars at the gates; there they rinse the burnt offering.H3957H6607H352H8179H1740H5930 39And in the porch of the gate [were] two tables on each side, on which to slaughter the burnt offering, the sin offering, and the guilt offering.H197H8179H8147H7979H7979H7819H5930H2403H817 40And on the outer side, as one went up to the gateway toward the north, were two tables; and on the other side of the porch of the gate [were] two tables.H3802H2351H5927H6607H6828H8179H8147H7979H312H3802H197H8179H8147H7979 41Four tables [were] on each side next to the gate; [or,] eight tables on which they slaughter [sacrifices.]H702H7979H702H7979H3802H8179H8083H7979H7819 42And for the burnt offering [there were] four tables of hewn stone, a cubit and a half long, a cubit and a half wide, and one cubit high, on which they lay the instruments with which they slaughter the burnt offering and the sacrifice.H702H7979H1496H68H5930H520H2677H753H520H2677H7341H259H520H1363H3240H3627H7819H5930H2077 43And the double hooks, one handbreadth in length, were installed in the house all around; and on the tables [was] the flesh of the offering.H1004H8240H259H2948H3559H5439H7979H1320H7133 44And from the outside to the inner gate were chambers for the singers in the inner court, [one of] which was at the side of the north gate, with its front toward the south, and one at the side of the east gate facing toward the north.H2351H6442H8179H3957H7891H6442H2691H3802H6828H8179H6440H1870H1864H259H3802H6921H8179H6440H1870H6828 45And he said to me, "This is the chamber which faces toward the south, [intended] for the priests who keep charge of the temple;H1696H2090H3957H6440H1870H1864H3548H8104H4931H1004 46but the chamber which faces toward the north is for the priests who keep charge of the altar. These are the sons of Zadok, who from the sons of Levi come near to the LORD to minister to Him. "H3957H6440H1870H6828H3548H8104H4931H4196H1121H6659H1121H3878H7131H3068H8334 47And he measured the court, a [perfect] square, a hundred cubits long and a hundred cubits wide; and the altar was in front of the temple.H4058H2691H3967H520H753H3967H520H7341H7251H4196H6440H1004 48Then he brought me to the porch of the temple and measured [each] side pillar of the porch, five cubits on each side; and the width of the gate was three cubits on each side.H935H197H1004H4058H352H197H2568H520H2568H520H7341H8179H7969H520H7969H520 49The length of the porch was twenty cubits, and the width eleven cubits; and at the stairway by which it was ascended [were] columns belonging to the side pillars, one on each side.H753H197H6242H520H7341H6249H6240H520H4609H5927H5982H352H259H259
