Then he measured the wall of the temple, six cubits thick, and the breadth of the side chambers, four cubits, all around the temple.

The building that was facing the separate yard on the west side was seventy cubits broad, and the wall of the building was five cubits thick all around, and its length ninety cubits.
Then he measured the temple, a hundred cubits long; and the yard and the building with its walls, a hundred cubits long;
also the breadth of the east front of the temple and the yard, a hundred cubits.
The width of the temple courtyard on the east, including the front of the temple, was a hundred cubits.
Then he measured the length of the building facing the courtyard at the rear of the temple, including its galleries on each side; it was a hundred cubits.
The main hall, the inner sanctuary and the portico facing the court,

The double doors had two leaves apiece, two swinging leaves for each door.
Each door had two leaves — two hinged leaves for each door.
