The Inner Temple
Then he brought me to the nave and measured the side pillars; six cubits wide on each side was the width of the side pillar.
Then he brought me to the nave and measured the side pillars; six cubits wide on each side was the width of the side pillar.
The width of the entrance was ten cubits and the sides of the entrance were five cubits on each side. And he measured the length of the nave, forty cubits, and the width, twenty cubits.
The width of the entryway was ten cubits, and the side walls of the entrance were five cubits on this side and five cubits on the other side; and he measured its length, forty cubits, and its width, twenty cubits.
Then he went inside and measured each side pillar of the doorway, two cubits, and the doorway, six cubits high; and the width of the doorway, seven cubits.
Also he went inside and measured the doorposts, two cubits; and the entrance, six cubits high; and the width of the entrance, seven cubits.
He measured its length, twenty cubits, and the width, twenty cubits, before the nave; and he said to me, “This is the most holy place.”
He measured the length, twenty cubits; and the width, twenty cubits, beyond the sanctuary; and he said to me, “This is the Most Holy Place.”
Then he measured the wall of the temple, six cubits; and the width of the side chambers, four cubits, all around about the house on every side.
The side chambers were in three stories, one above another, and thirty in each story; and the side chambers extended to the wall which stood on their inward side all around, that they might be fastened, and not be fastened into the wall of the temple itself.
The side chambers surrounding the temple were wider at each successive story. Because the structure surrounding the temple went upward by stages on all sides of the temple, therefore the width of the temple increased as it went higher; and thus one went up from the lowest story to the highest by way of the second story.
As one went up from story to story, the side chambers became wider all around, because their supporting ledges in the wall of the temple ascended like steps; therefore the width of the structure increased as one went up from the lowest story to the highest by way of the middle one.
I saw also that the house had a raised platform all around; the foundations of the side chambers were a full rod of six long cubits in height.
I also saw an elevation all around the temple; it was the foundation of the side chambers, a full rod, that is, six cubits high.
The thickness of the outer wall of the side chambers was five cubits. But the free space between the side chambers belonging to the temple
and the outer chambers was twenty cubits in width all around the temple on every side.
And between it and the wall chambers was a width of twenty cubits all around the temple on every side.
The doorways of the side chambers toward the free space consisted of one doorway toward the north and another doorway toward the south; and the width of the free space was five cubits all around.
The doors of the side chambers opened on the terrace, one door toward the north and another toward the south; and the width of the terrace was five cubits all around.
The building that was in front of the separate area at the side toward the west was seventy cubits wide; and the wall of the building was five cubits thick all around, and its length was ninety cubits.
The Building at the Western End
The building that faced the separating courtyard at its western end was seventy cubits wide; the wall of the building was five cubits thick all around, and its length ninety cubits.
The building that faced the separating courtyard at its western end was seventy cubits wide; 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; the separate area with the building and its walls were also a hundred cubits long.
Dimensions and Design of the Temple Area
So he measured the temple, one hundred cubits long; and the separating courtyard with the building and its walls was one hundred cubits long;
So he measured the temple, one hundred cubits long; and the separating courtyard with the building and its walls was one hundred cubits long;
Also the width of the front of the temple and that of the separate areas along the east side totaled a hundred cubits.
also the width of the eastern face of the temple, including the separating courtyard, was one hundred cubits.
He measured the length of the building along the front of the separate area behind it, with a gallery on each side, a hundred cubits; he also measured the inner nave and the porches of the court.
The thresholds, the latticed windows and the galleries round about their three stories, opposite the threshold, were paneled with wood all around, and from the ground to the windows (but the windows were covered),
their doorposts and the beveled window frames. And the galleries all around their three stories opposite the threshold were paneled with wood from the ground to the windows — the windows were covered —
over the entrance, and to the inner house, and on the outside, and on all the wall all around inside and outside, by measurement.
It was carved with cherubim and palm trees; and a palm tree was between cherub and cherub, and every cherub had two faces,
And it was made with cherubim and palm trees, a palm tree between cherub and cherub. Each cherub had two faces,
a man’s face toward the palm tree on one side and a young lion’s face toward the palm tree on the other side; they were carved on all the house all around.
so that the face of a man was toward a palm tree on one side, and the face of a young lion toward a palm tree on the other side; thus it was made throughout the temple all around.
From the ground to above the entrance cherubim and palm trees were carved, as well as on the wall of the nave.
From the floor to the space above the door, and on the wall of the sanctuary, cherubim and palm trees were carved.
The doorposts of the nave were square; as for the front of the sanctuary, the appearance of one doorpost was like that of the other.
The doorposts of the temple were square, as was the front of the sanctuary; their appearance was similar.
The altar was of wood, three cubits high and its length two cubits; its corners, its base and its sides were of wood. And he said to me, “This is the table that is before the LORD.”
The altar was of wood, three cubits high, and its length two cubits. Its corners, its length, and its sides were of wood; and he said to me, “This is the table that is before the Lord.”
The nave and the sanctuary each had a double door.
The temple and the sanctuary had two doors.
Each of the doors had two leaves, two swinging leaves; two leaves for one door and two leaves for the other.
The doors had two panels apiece, two folding panels: two panels for one door and two panels for the other door.
Also there were carved on them, on the doors of the nave, cherubim and palm trees like those carved on the walls; and there was a threshold of wood on the front of the porch outside.
Cherubim and palm trees were carved on the doors of the temple just as they were carved on the walls. A wooden canopy was on the front of the vestibule outside.
There were latticed windows and palm trees on one side and on the other, on the sides of the porch; thus were the side chambers of the house and the thresholds.
There were beveled window frames and palm trees on one side and on the other, on the sides of the vestibule — also on the side chambers of the temple and on the canopies.
