📚Afterwards he brought me to the sanctuary 📖, and measured the doorposts, six cubits wide on one side, and six cubits 📖 wide on the other side, which was the width of the tabernacle 📖. 2 📚And the width of the entrance was ten cubits, and the side walls of the entrance were five cubits on the one side, and five cubits on the other side. And he measured its length, forty cubits; and the width, twenty cubits.3 📚Then he went inside 📖 and measured the doorpost, two cubits; and the entrance, six cubits high; and the width of the entrance, seven cubits. 4 📚So he measured its length, twenty cubits; and the breadth, twenty cubits, beyond the sanctuary. And he said to me, “This is the Most Holy Place”.
5 📚Afterwards he measured the wall of the temple, six cubits thick; and the width of every side room, four cubits, all around the temple on every side. 6 📚And the side rooms had three stories, one over another, with thirty on each level. And they extended to the wall of the temple which was the wall for the side rooms all around, so that they might be supported, but they were not fastened into the wall of the temple. 7 📚And all around the side rooms became wider at each successive story, for the structure all around the temple went up by stages. Therefore the width of this temple structure increased going up from the lowest room to the highest through the middle one.
8 📚I also saw that the temple had a raised base all around, the foundation for the side rooms. It was a full rod of six large cubits. 9 📚The thickness of the outside wall of the side rooms, was five cubits; and also the terrace of the side rooms inside the house. 10 📚And beyond the rooms was an open area twenty cubits wide all around on every side of the temple. 11 📚And the doors of the side rooms faced the terrace, one door toward the north, and another door toward the south. And the width of the terrace was five cubits all around.
12 📚And the building facing the separated area at its western end was seventy cubits wide, and the wall of the building was five cubits thick all around, and its length was ninety cubits.
13 📚So he measured the temple, a hundred cubits long, and the separated area, and the building with its walls, a hundred cubits long, 14 and the width of the eastern face of the temple and of the separated area, a hundred cubits.
15 📚And he measured the length of the building opposite the separated area behind it, and its galleries on the one side and on the other side, a hundred cubits, with the inner temple, and the porticoes of the courtyard. 16 📚Their thresholds and the narrow windows and the galleries all around on their three stories, opposite the threshold, were paneled with wood all around, from the ground up to the windows (the windows being covered) 17 📚to the space above the door, to the inner house, and outside, and every wall all around, inside and outside, by measure. 18 📚And it was made with figures of cherubim 📖 and palm trees, so that a palm tree was between cherub and cherub. Each cherub had two faces 📖, 19 📚so that the face of a man was facing the palm tree on the one side, and the face of a young lion faced the palm tree on the other side. They were carved all around the whole temple. 20 📚From the floor to the space above the door cherubim and palm trees were carved, and on the wall of the temple.
21 📚The doorposts of the temple were square, also the one at the front of the sanctuary. The appearance of the one was the same as the appearance of the other. 22 📚The wooden altar 📖 was three cubits high, and its length two cubits; and its corners, and its length, and its walls, were of wood. And he said to me, “This is the table that is before the LORD”.
23 📚And the temple and the sanctuary had double doors. 24 📚The doors each had two leaves, two folding leaves; two leaves for one door, and two leaves for the other. 25 📚And on them, on the doors of the temple, were carved cherubim and palm trees, like the ones carved on the walls; and there was a wooden projection over the front of the outside portico. 26 📚And on the sides of the portico there were narrow windows and palm trees, on one side and on the other side, and on the side rooms of the house, and on the wooden projection.
