AFTERWARD ahe brought me to bthe temple, and measured the posts, six cubits broad on the one side, and six cubits broad on the other side, which was the breadth of the *tabernacle.

2

And the breadth of the 1door was ten cubits; and the sides of the door were five cubits on the one side, and five cubits on the other side: and he measured the length thereof, cforty cubits: and the breadth, twenty cubits.

c 2Ch. 3.3,8. 1Ki. 6.2,17.
3

Then went he inward, and measured the post of the door, two cubits; and the door, six cubits; and the breadth of the door, seven cubits.

4

So he measured the length thereof, dtwenty cubits; and the breadth, twenty cubits, before the temple: and he said unto me, This is the most holy place.

After he measured the ewall of the house, six cubits; and the breadth of every fside chamber, four cubits, round about the house on every side.

And the side chambers were three, 2one over another, and 3thirty in order; and they gentered into the wall which was of the house for the side chambers round about, that they might 4have hold, but they had not hold in the wall of the house.

g 1Ki. 6.6,10. Mat. 7.24; 16.18. 1Co. 1.30; 15.58. 1Pe. 1.5.
7

And 5there was an enlarging, and a winding about still upward to the side chambers: for the winding about of the house went still upward round about the house: therefore the breadth of the house was still upward, and so hincreased from the lowest chamber to the highest by the midst.

h 1Ki. 6.8. Ps. 84.7. Mat. 13.23. Jn. 15.8. Ep. 4.12,13. Phi. 1.9. He. 6.1. 2Pe. 1.5-9; 3.18. Is. 49.19,20; 60.4,5.

I saw also the height of the house round about: the ifoundations of the side chambers were a jfull reed of six great cubits.

The thickness of the wall, which was for the side chamber *without, was five cubits: and that which was left was the place of the side chambers that were within.

And between the chambers was the wideness of ktwenty cubits round about the house on every side.

And the doors of the side chambers were ltoward the place that was left, mone door toward the north, and another door toward the south: and the breadth of the place that was left was five cubits round about.

Now the building that was before the nseparate place at the end toward the west was seventy cubits broad; and the wall of the building was five cubits thick round about, and the length thereof ninety cubits.

To that above the door, even unto the inner house, and without, and by all the wall round about within and *without, by 9measure.
